I have zero data to back thus up, but my gut feels like while inflation did raise prices on everything, corporations are using that as an excuse to gouge us.
Corporations: Let's raise our margin and set record profits.

Mr. Snrub: No, no, we'll blame our record setting profit on stuff that marginally increased the price, so...
Milk is $8 for 4L ... because ... "inflation" ...
Gas is $2/L ... because ... "carbon tax" ...
