Thats a much deeper topic than I care to get into now.

You are thinking of monetary inflation, I am referring to the most common use of the word, price inflation.

>Inflation most commonly refers to a rise in the general price level over a period of time (also known as price inflation).

Yes, the Fed controls how much money is worth, ie the price level. They 'print' more or less money so that the change in the general price level (aka 'inflation') hits their target.
