the poor hoomans do all the "real" stuff like cleaning the sewers and picking the almond trees. the rich hoomans do the "fake" stuff. but the "fake" stuff is money and money allows action to promise chain into and transform almond picking to transform into housing & pizza

inflation doesn't create REAL value. it just rebalances things. the central authority steps in and goes "hmm okay... so er... the problem is that.... umm.. this... guy i think needs to be valued more and um...u know what i'm just going to give it to executives to distribute"

TLDR; trying to fix economic problems with money printing is like trying to use HR to fix a colleague interpersonal relationship problem
