No, I meant inflation can only continue long term while the government prints money.

The problem is suppose an egg costs 10 X today and 20 X in 1 month. Sure in 1 month it might work but in 5 years it’s costing ~1.1 X 10^18 X and there is simply nowhere near enough X for a single transaction of anything.

Which isn’t to say the economy would be better off in the short term. High inflation can be semi stable for long enough to be ruinous.
