You want to lower inflation? Start by making America a commie nation in a state of crisis like this.
You got to go after the source. When you see price increases at the lower level, it is because he buys his stuff from the source that already jacked up them prices. The prices then trickles down to the lower end consumers like you and I.
Who are them sources? Well the big corporations like proctor and gamble who's competition is johnson and johnson. Coke vs pepsi. Now in a free market enterprise, if coke dares to raise their prices, we go to pepsi. This would stop coke from raising any nude prices. No price raises, no inflation.

These corporations are already making over 20% gains and yet, they made a pact to raise their prices even more. So now, if Coke raises their prices, pepsi will raise theirs too. They are in it together to feast on the general public. Their bottom line is to make the most money possible because that is why they are in business. They don't care about the little people like us now do they? They already know that no matter how much they raises their prices, the consumer will buy and have no where to run but to buy since the competition are doing the same thing.
Your commie government needs to stop them from playing the monopoly game by taxing the chit out of them after they make 20% profit. Tax them big corporation and give it back to the poor. If corporation stops with the price hike, the lower end guys will not need to raise their prices as well. Then you have the issue of paying employees big bucks so they are going to raise their prices anyways. Your commie government can go after them too.
