I was doing some deep
reading about this today. Forget money printing etc for one moment and my conclusion is that inflation in its most basic form is a result of human behaviour and basic supply and demand. It exists within simple trade, be-it two sheep for your donkey etc. If humans demand more donkeys or more sheep then inflation happens. However, it gets far more intricate when fiat money supply is involved.
