Are You Going to Take Advantage of the Inflation?

Inflation is the result of private individuals who stand to gain personal wealth by doing it. The people who raise the prices in a capitalist economic system, because that's how it works, are not democratically elected city council or parliament. Every major corporation in America has something called a purchasing manager, usually part of a purchasing department. That's why they have an office with computers and secretaries and assistants and deputies. They're supposed to have a fallback where you can get your inputs if the regular source is interruptedby weather, by a fire, by a war, by who knows what?
