This meme is propaganda. The primary cause of inflation is out of control government spending. In the wise words of Milton Friedman, "Every budget is balanced... If you want to know the real government budget look at inflation."

The primary cause of inflation is a massive increase in the money supply

My understanding is that the government wants to reduce the value of the dollar so their massive debt has less value
