Inflation is the artificial increase of the money supply; The government spends the new money with corporations, *at the original value*, using up resources. Those resources are now missing and will need to be replaced in the market; This demand now increases the price of those resources, and everyone else who doesn't get freshly printed digital money shoved up their butt by the government, now has to pay those *raised prices* to overcome the unnatural draw on the economy you get from using an inflationary fiat currency system.
