Is inflation here to stay?

[mindrust]

Pretty much yes. If the inflation stops, liquidity will dry out and then banks and everything connected to them will be going down because of it. Inflation will be around and taxes will have to rise to keep it at sane levels. If taxes don’t rise, the whole world will enter hyperinflation instead and that’s Zimbabwe we are talking about. Instead of getting angry or becoming pessimistic about it, if we can take the right steps, we can turn this into our advantage. First of all, get rid of the bad money and hodl real money like btc and godl. There are a few other good options as well but these are your best bets to protect yourself against the inflation. Second of all, having reasonably priced debt could become a lifesaver during inflation because money loses its purchasing power faster than the interest rates on your loans and that’s a smart and efficient way to get rich.

With persistent price hikes and global supply chain issues, are we entering a new era of permanently higher inflation rates?

Are there really any ways to combat inflation permanently ?

yes make the entire world socialist.

or if you want capitalism invent the warp drive making space exploration cheap and easy.

[ruykeri]

The entire world system is designed for inflation. Where the price of fiat will decrease day by day and inflation will increase. Where there is a loop system of printing money. The central bank gives money to the people with interest through other private banks. To pay that interest, it prints money again and gives money to the people through banks. And this is how the system has been going on for years. That is why there is never any chance of getting out of inflation through fiat currency. The most effective currency against it is Bitcoin. That is why Bitcoin is given so much importance. In the future, the world will become Bitcoin-based at some point.

The central banks can not afford to let inflation be permanently roaring otherwise, it would cause very high level of fiats devaluations and even when there had to be increase in interest rates, definitely will be an erosion on savings due to currency stability of values while inflations continuously soaring depreciating purchase power.
To curb this economy disaster is why there is a mandate for the central banks and authorities to control inflation control.

And so what has the Central Banks of respective countries done or is doing to wage off the continuous inflation that is strangling the economies of the worlds. What we see is more and more fiat printing which has being the major cause of the inflation that has led to fiats losing value, the declining purchasing power of the people and, even the interest rates they usually raise with the plan of inflation control and protecting the country's currency still doesn't give positive consequences to the economic hardships.

I don't think it will go away and nothing can eliminate it instantly because that's how it is and remains attached to any economic variable, even if we try to mass produce a warp drive model like in a fictional story like the story in the Star Trek movie. But your sense of humor is also fun when dealing with this. Yes, it's not like we turn the palm of our hands.

That question supposes that inflation is a bug that can be patched. Nonetheless, it is becoming less and less like a quality in the way in which we have re-organized world production. Over the last thirty years, we have opined on efficiency rather than resilience, just-in-time everything, narrowed supply chains, low redundancy. That was beautiful until it failed

The only difference is that the political economy has changed. In the last forty years, central banks were able to credibly threaten to strangle demand due to the absence of bargaining power in labor. Salaries remained stagnant, prices remained low. But labor markets are now tight, and voters won't tolerate the unemployment rates that would be necessary to wring out wage growth the old way. We are in this funny in-between place where inflation continues, and no one is willing to bear the political cost of actually halting it

Can we combat it permanently? Sure at a price: either huge government investment of domestic production capacity, which would be 10 years long and would need financial discipline which we have never exercised, or the savage recession which would shatter the bargaining power of labor. I do not see the political will in either. Definitely increased baseline inflation than the 2010s, I guess. We got used to an anomaly and named it normal

Inflation is something that can never really disappear because it’s tied to how our economies function and how money circulates through them when production slows down or when governments print too much money the value of fiat currency naturally decreases causing the prices of goods and services to rise even if central banks step in to raise interest rates that only helps to slow inflation down temporarily but it doesn’t fix the root of the problem which lies in deeper economic issues like excessive debt supply shortages and uneven global trade.

Right now inflation seems to be sticking around longer than expected because the world is still recovering from multiple disruptions first the pandemic then wars political tensions and climate issues have all made it harder for supply chains to stabilize and when products take longer or cost more to produce prices go up for everyone even if demand stays the same. Central banks are trying to balance things by adjusting rates and tightening policies but that also has its side effects higher rates make borrowing more expensive which slows business growth and job creation so they have to be careful not to push the economy into recession while trying to control inflation it’s like walking on a thin line where every step has consequences.

Buy bitcoin and hold your assets in it, this is the modern way of fighting the inflation that keeps on surging. While there is no way to stop it because it will only continue. But we can do things on our own to lessen the heaviness that it's giving to the world, to our personal economy. And when you're already doing that and able to have a multiple ways of earning, it's also a steady way of fighting it. When you have a lot of money, you'll not feel that much because you're focused only on two things, to earn more and to invest more which you'll thank yourself after several years of being consistently doing that.

Inflation cannot be controlled permanently. The government can only try to make inflation more stable to prevent it from turning into hyper inflation overnight. No matter how hard they try to control inflation, certain conditions like supply chain disruptions, increased demand without a corresponding supply and other conditions caused by governments negligence and recklessness will always drive inflation up. Accept the sad fact that inflation has come to stay and we all can't do anything about it.

Inflation is here to stay. This is one of the biggest problem that the government can hardly solved. Instead, let's just accept the reality that inflation is already part of our daily living. There is no way to beat it, so its best if we can make some initiatives to somehow lessen our everyday expenses.

Growing our own food at the backyard is one way to lessen inflation. And by sticking to what is only necessary and disregard those wants that are not useful at all, hence we can save a little. If we can do this consistently, inflation may not affect us too much.

Inflation is really giving us a headache. But what else can we do than to deal with it. As long as fiat exists, I bet we can never get rid of inflation.

Can we combat it permanently? No, what we can only do is to find means to temporarily overcome inflation, and that bitcoin investment is a good outlet. But we can never rely too much from bitcoin knowing its volatility concerns. We have to make personal adjustments from our expenses down to living a simple and not expensive life.

In my opinion the only way to combat inflation is to stop printing money and to have money backed by something tangible ike gold or other precious metals or even Bitcoin. Infinite money printing out of air will just make inflation worse and worse.

[0x000369]

honestly i think inflation is something we are just stuck with at this point it has been here forever and every country deals with it in one way or another and yeah sometimes it gets worse because of supply issues or bad government decisions but even in the best times it never really goes away  

i dont think there is a permanent fix because the whole system is built around money losing value slowly over time that is how they push people to spend and keep the economy moving even when they say they are fighting inflation they are mostly just trying to keep it from getting out of control not actually removing it



the only thing we can really do is learn how to protect ourselves a bit save in stronger assets avoid unnecessary debt and try to adapt to the changes because waiting for inflation to disappear completely is just not realistic

In every country, the government controls the economic system of its own country. Usually, inflation occurs when a country's own currency is printed more than its total assets. Again, inflation occurs when the government faces economic reality and demand increases, the government has to adopt different policies and when it has to face international situations. It has become a disease in all countries of the world. In some countries, the government tries its best to reduce inflation, but in some countries, the government illegally smuggles money out of the country, causing inflation to increase further. Although it is not possible to stop inflation completely, if the government has a sincere desire, it is possible to control it through proper planning.

When everything rises, we must monitor our daily expenses to maintain financial stability. Moreover, when inflation persists, our income will certainly make it more difficult to cover the cost of living for our families. Because of this overall problem, the government must be ready to stabilize inflation so that it doesn't escalate into a major problem for many people.
A very good idea like this will certainly benefit many people. Why do I say that? Things in planting food will certainly help a little with regard to expenses so that we can save a little with the situation regarding the ongoing inflation and if everything has stabilized again, all the desires that we have been suppressing for a long time will certainly be able to be fulfilled again.

People like asking some dumb questions at times, since when have the price of everything go back to the way they used to? Inflation have always been here to stay since the day we are born.

Inflation is a tool for the government on its people, anyone that tries to bring the good old days back always end up dead, for example a very good politician in my country who turned back the hands of time, it was like a miracle. For months everyone was able to breath, food and almost every expenses got cut down over 60%, until one afternoon on a sunny day, he was betrayed by his friend and was assassinated.

Things will never go back the way they once are, debt of the nation, inflation are mere tools for the leaders, Bitcoin seem to be a fixer to that inflation and I hope it keeps going this direction.

Inflation is a form of hidden taxation by the government and they will never stop doing this. Over time things will get better but unfortunately, that is only true for them, for us things will get worse.

Bitcoin is a hedge against inflation, but it is not the only thing that can do that. There are many different tools and ways to help us hedge against inflation. Investing in gold and stocks is also a great tool, or starting a business and growing your assets is also a way to prevent inflation.

Inflation will always exist every year because the government maintains its control. Don't expect inflation to be permanently controlled or combated, as the government deliberately allows it to continue printing money.

In economic theory inflation can also be said to not be an increase in the price of goods, but rather an increase in the money supply. If we're talking about the price increase itself, it's the impact of inflation. The government will allow the value of its currency to inflate to reduce the real burden, and this is certain. Therefore in the long term many people will become poorer, unless they buy Bitcoin and hold it long-term.

Its a lot worse than that. Printing money may just be something we can just take a sigh and go on again. But when along with this inflation is the Shrinkflation.
I know they do this to maintain the prices of the products but its not actually what they do, they adjust the size and quality of the product and then also raise the price.

In any way, we are here already. Going to survive this if you are just going to go take 2 jobs. Its the weight to carry for men just wanted to put food on the table.
