The surest way to increase inflation is to impose more taxes on companies that will then be priced into their products.

I think everyone overlooks the fact just as important to growth in money supply, or commercial loan, government, politicians and regulation can and will damage the supply of goods.

Yes, that’s one way, true.

Milton Friedman: inflation is purely a monetary phenomenon. As the amount of money in circulation increases higher than production, there will be inflation (Friedman, Money Mischief page 16). Increasing taxes lowers the amount of money in circulation, but causes prices to go up because of a decrease in supply (cost in the factors of production).
