The other tax -- am I wrong in my reasoning?

[Tigermoose]

The other tax not being mentioned is the inflation tax. In order to keep interest payments down on the deficit, the government will keep interest rates down through the Federal Reserve. This will cause inflation that will largely impact the poor and lower middle class that does not have enough money to invest in stocks or commodities that would offset inflation. This is the preferred "taxation" method of politicians, because most people aren't aware they are being taxed.

Is this a major driver in the separation of the classes? Are we not solidifying a system that divides us between those who have the capital to invest in stocks, bonds, and commodities versus those who do not? As liberal democrats, we attempt to lessen the impact on the poor by providing welfare and other entitlement programs. But is that just a feel-good bandaid that covers the enormous theft being perpetuated by our federal reserve system of perpetual inflation?
