It's almost as if the lesson on inflation isn't supposed to stop when you're 5 years old, as people start to have a better grasp of nuance and complexity.

When I was five years old, I was taught that all radiation was bad and would kill you and that it creates toxic monster.

Then when I took an actual science class, I learned that the entire EM frequency was radiation, and that the most common forms are completely harmless, and that I shouldn't be scared of microwaves or cell phones. We would not be able to live without radiation.

Hyperinflation is bad. Everyone acknowledges that it's bad. But once you take an actual economics class, you understand the difference between hyperinflation and regular inflation, and you learn why regular inflation is necessary for a functioning economy.
