If inflation is good or bad depends on where you are in life.

If you just bought a house that is just barely affordable, then you want massive inflation because your house payments won't go up with time, while inflation means you get large raises. Even if your raises don't keep pace with inflation, (they often don't catch up for a few years), after just a couple years you are still way ahead because your largest cost of living is staying still.

By contrast, if you are retired your probably get a lot of your income from fixed incomes that won't go up over time. As such you end up having less and less worth to spend every month.

There are a lot more situations, and everyone is in a different situation.
