Funny who the hell would a rate increase help with physical shortage?
Central bankers are retards. They want to squash demand (ie punish you until you stop buying) instead of lowering rates to help supplier supply more.

Rate hikes = cost hikes and the only way to reduce prices by raising prices is by causing a recession.

Inflation is always a shortage. Always. Would you say your kids are eating too much or the problem is you don't have enough food? The solution to hungry kids isn't to acclimate them to hunger but supply more food. Central bankers are idiots.
