Inflation in most countries id properly checked is caused my the human factor. When we have too many greedy people in government and business, life could become a living hell for people.
It is true that the laws of demand and supply can cause inflation on the cost of goods but most times it is beyond that. People just want to earn all the profit and care less about their neighbours.
It's a complicated situation, in my opinion politicians are the main causes of this, because their methods are ridiculous and don't aim for the good of the people just for them to become richer and own the country if I can say so, else they want things their way .
Of course you are right about people just wanting to get rich and not caring about their neighbors. Anyway, it's a big challenge to live here, we need to hope for change, but I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon.
