Wage increases don't cause inflation.

If anything it's the reverse. They are definitely linked. Wages were flat for far to long plus there was little inflation. Time to move on.

The huge gap in wages and wealth, however, absolutely does cause inflation.

Well sure they do (someone has to pay that wage).

Though REAL wage growth would still be up, because caused inflation is a fraction of that wage growth.

COVID really threw us for a loop and I believe it's still going to bite us in the ass again. It's still there , circulating around. It can easily morph into a very transmissible lethal strain. Perhaps that's exactly what this world needs , a few billion less people might give the earth a fighting chance to get back to normal. Got to look at the plus side , otherwise it's all bad news.
