My observation is that suddenly high fuel costs and inflation in general are initiated by “investor” speculation. That starts the dominoes falling for real inflation.

It’s a natural progression when an economy is based primarily on money and gambling and not on real things. We have a culture best summed up in one word… MOAR!

My question: Is this an incurable human psychological disorder?

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
