I notice that when the media, including NPR, talk about the causes of inflation, they avoid mentioning those that their big funding sources don't want mentioned, like climate disasters; big profits for big business; the super rich, including from other countries, buying properties that they use part-time; zoning laws that require big houses on big lots; vampire investors that buy mobile home parks and start jacking up the lot rent. They have recently started covering theft of goods in transit, but not mentioning that it would affect inflation, because businesses would have to raise prices to cover the loss.
