     @nameredacted @Terry basic economic assumption, that "ideally" shouldn't happen. There isn't a school of economics that talk about money printer go brrr as a variable.
     
     One method is to remove liquid cash that is circulating, obviously more bills devalued the dollar, so a portion of collected taxes could be burned, but needs to be announced. That way we lower the supply and hopefully improve demand of the dollar again.
     
     Not happening, but it's one solution.

     @Terry for an umm actually, lower wages ideally equals lower service rates, therefore inflation is kept in check.
     
     that is why rising interest rates is used to counter inflation, if it becomes difficult for people to purchase anything, and people lose their jobs, then inflation would slow down.
