Here's something worth thinking about: when politicians pressure central bank leadership, you typically see inflation spiral upward. Why? Because policymakers end up expanding money supply at all the wrong moments—not based on actual economic conditions, but to fund whatever the administration wants to spend on. It's a classic case of political interference distorting monetary discipline. The result? Currency debasement, eroded purchasing power, and market instability. This dynamic matters significantly for those tracking asset valuations across the board.

This theory is not wrong, but it's not comprehensive... The people at the central bank have actually been tied up for a long time and have no choice.

Basically, it's just playing with fire of power. The central bank is hijacked by politicians, and the printing press can't stop. Our wallets are the biggest victims.

It's the same old story... The central bank is hijacked by politicians, and then inflation follows. Isn't this a familiar tale in the crypto world?

To be honest, once politicians get involved with the central bank, it's over. The same old tricks are always played... reckless money printing, asset buying, inflation taking off, and the money in the hands of retail investors just evaporates.

Here we go again with this set? Every time, politicians blame the central bank, and as a result, the money in our pockets becomes less and less valuable.

Uh... isn't this just the trouble caused by printing money? When politicians mess around, the central bank has to take the blame.

Bro, political interference with the central bank has been played out long ago. Who still doesn’t understand that excessive money printing is the root cause? --- It's the same old story: printing money excessively to make capitalists pay the bill, while we wage earners foot the cost. --- Nah, to put it simply, it's about rent-seeking power. The central bank has long become a political tool. --- Isn't this the root cause of inflation? No wonder everything I buy is getting more expensive. --- Got it, so the crypto world is the way out, right? No longer trusting fiat currency. --- Every single time... when power reaches out, purchasing power disappears.
