Still waiting for the inflation from the last crisis.... You 100% sure it's coming?
I think you might be misunderstanding the parent's point. The inflation is already here! Indeed, inflation is how the economy is managed. As much as inflation sucks, economists would way rather have that as a problem than deflation.
The US has its “exorbitant privilege” - a pretty thick buffer of seignorage profits it can extract without running into hyperinflation.
This buffer is substantial, but finite.
I think it's hilarious your comment was downvoted. Plainly it's finite. Otherwise, we'd just live on printed money forever and nobody would have to work anymore. What could go wrong?!
We can eat some inflation, and it's worth remembering that the developed world has trouble with underinflation these days, so adding inflation isn't a negative in the short term.
Inflation would distribute the losses along the entire chain. That doesn't sound so bad right now.
And for that reason, it's the most regressive form of taxation.
