The FED:TGA credits reserve currency to bank reserves and increases the capital available for bank lending. The MMT model does not account for this. Can MMT and large credit lending co-exist (like for Data centers)?

Is there anything regular people can do to stop inflation?

Im not only reading and hearing about inflation more and more every day, I'm actually experiencing it quite clearly at the super market and the gas station.

But I still struggle to understand what's causing more inflation. Is it the central bank or the price of oil (aka "fossilflation")

I don't feel very safe with the idea of inflation (and my buying capacity) being in the hands of a group of men at the central bank or Trump's war on Iran.

So I genuinely wonder, is there anything a mortal like you and I can do to stop or mitigate inflation?

What institutional changes, if any, would create incentives for Congress to address long-term fiscal problems before they become immediate crises?
