All horseshit. Prices went up because of price gouging, not “inflation.” They’re pretending to fight a problem their real constituency creates every day.

These are two different concepts. Auditing the fed does make sense since no knows the true number of USD. Price gouging could also be an influence, but we need to remember that commodity prices went up 400%+ during covid for things like corn and lumber which could take years before those ripples are felt
