Crime Against Humanity: the Ripple Effect of Inflation, 6

It could be said that part of the harm from the monopolist chosen is inflation in phase one and deflation and stagnation in phase two. And that the ripple effect described here takes place in phase one. Now, when and why does the chosen, the would−be monopolist, shift from phase one to phase two, if ever? When its craving for monopoly is either satisfied or impeded. Particularly when it runs out of petrol.
If the unbridgeable advantage of the chosen were finite, it may end before achieving market dominance. Not so when the chosen is bought or financed by the moneypulators: if the source of its unbridgeable advantage is infinite, the duration of its phase one can be infinite, too.

If there are moneypulators who can create purchasing power out of nothing in their own pockets indefinitely, there will be a pyramid of "chosen" accomplices acting in phase one indefinitely, and a ripple effect extending indefinitely in space and time beyond single ripples or groups of ripples in a global downward spiral, where ripples are hardly isolated, but rather continuous. And indeed moneypulators’ creation of purchasing power out of nothing is not just a one−off but a permanent, continuous activity. Hence you do not have a mere one−off ripple and ripple effect, but rather a continuous wave motion of ripple effects, if not a permanent smooth flood tide whose surface is barely ruffled, but whose flow rate is drowning us all and preparing the final disaster that will wipe us all away, as the incessant ripples gnaw at the coastline sand first, and then at the ground below. Gutta cavat lapidem: water hollows stone.
And in the meantime, the study of all these inner mechanisms is no reason to forget that all those who are neither early receivers nor late receivers, but the vast majority of the deprived, go on paying the whole price anyway, while unaware of being ultimately doomed as well. From the frying pan to the fire. Blindfolded.
