Considering how several governments around the world acted during Covid-19, even I, who am a nobody, could foresee this inflation that is raging around the world now. If someone like me could see this coming, then those who are experts and are well paid to anticipate and act in time must have seen this coming too.
I guess they were fully aware that inflation was coming, though not with the enormous force it actually did mainly thanks to energy prices. Even before Covid-19 started, the majority of governments in Europe had been kept on a leash by the environmental movements and took everything they said as truth without thinking either critically or logically.
When they realized that they had dismantled large parts of their energy self-sufficiency, nuclear power plants, and became dependent on gas from mainly Russia and Iran to ensure the energy supply, the damage was already done. Then they let inflation hit with full force to be able to put all the blame on the rampant energy prices due to Russia's war on Ukraine.
