...why all the inflation?...
Inflation is caused when there is more money in circulation than there is value to support it....starting in 2009 the fed started printing money without anything to back it up...it continued for eight years...the reflective inflation was only staved off by the policies following but the COVID pandemic caused a big enough hiccup in the economy that it allowed the inflation to gain traction and take hold...add all the futures traders adding to the inflated price of commodities...
