You can't control price inflation/deflation, you can only control monetary inflation. I disagree. Gas prices go up when the dollar drops (not the only reason, but a guaranteed one). Make the yuan and the yen vastly more expensive, or just block imports at the port, and prices will go up. Maybe even to the point where it will be cost effective to pay americans to make them.
