It does when the price of things goes up (especially on essentials) and creates profits and no one is paid enough to live but creates those profits.

If my employer refuses to pay me a living wage even though they can, I can't magically buy a new car if I need one, especially if the prices on cars went up by, example, 30%. ESPECIALLY if my employer refuses to pay me more.

It's inflated TWICE actually because the price goes up normally, and again because my pay did not increase. My pay actually took a loss because it didn't get raised enough to be proportional to x% inflation.
