Thank you for elaborating.
First, I am a pretty radical small government libertarian, so your wealth distribition tag on me is way off the mark, though after 24 years working for the federal government I know a lot of the problems first hand.
The last 50 years were a heavy experiment in central monetary planning and fiat currency, so it is difficult, but most world reserve currencies were deflationary to build their initial trust because they were effectively receipts for gold.
The Chicago School and Austrian school of economics are in line with my stated theory on inflation and wealth gaps. Unfortunately, most mainstream economists are Keynesian or even worse Modern Monetarists, which is in fashion because it supports big government.
Here is an idea into the theory:
