Inflation doesn't come from demand, it comes from someone raising the price of something - a raw material or a finished product. The combined effect of all those pricing hikes is what we call "inflation", and they are almost always done in the name of increasing profit, not to meet demand (whether elastic or not). A system that demands infinite growth cannot work in a finite world, that's the problem at the root of capitalism.

"Actual inflation" is just some capitalist a bit further up the supply chain "turning the screws on everyone just because they can". Inflation is the ultimate proof capitalism is an inherently flawed system.
Biggest problem with it is that it lies with the exact same confidence it tells the truth. Or, put another way, it's confidently incorrect as often as it is confidently correct - and there's no way to tell the difference unless you already know the answer.
Their money is already there so them moving wouldn't make much of a difference.

I've always been partial to the phrase "the worst thing someone has experienced is the worst thing they've experienced". Someone elses experiences never invalidates that.

Left hand by the scruff, right hand by the belt, lift, swing forward, back, forward, and release. Easy :)
Also why life on earth is dying off as well...
An also a lot of middle-class western people. 1% of the world's population is about 80 million people.
You'd have to go down to 0.001% to only target the ultra-wealthy.
