Inflation is framed as a destructive moral and societal force that corrodes trust and punishes the vulnerable
Moralistic and fear-based language is used to portray inflation as an existential threat to social cohesion, not just an economic issue. The article claims it 'corrodes society', 'destroys trust', and 'punishes savers, pensioners and those on fixed incomes', elevating it to a moral crisis.
“Inflation corrodes society. It destroys trust in money. Once trust in money weakens, trust in institutions follows.”
