A lifetime ago I heard that "inflation is good actually, because it allows for economic mobility" as in people without a lot of money get more of the "new" money and so get to join the "middle class" (not a real class, but an income bracket).
Turns out the rich plugged up that little leak in tiny bit of wealth that actually did trickle down.
