Supply and demand example: governments have created a lot of money to pay for extraordinary expenses in 2020 and 2021. Supply of money is now greater and this leads to rising prices (i.e. inflation).

What I mean by recuperation: We don't create more value just from creating money. So if there is more money to go around but the same amount of goods produced, that leads to inflation. We're talking about inflation to adjust for the money created to cover expenses.




Yes. Inflation happens.

So you think everything should cost 10x what it cost last year? Doesn’t seems reasonable to me. Seems like some things are up that much because of supply and demand.
