The best cure for inflation is to increase taxes. This removes money from the economy, and can be targeted towards the areas of the economy with too much money.

Raising interest rates paid to the Fed are another way of removing money from the economy, but are a broader brush, although the Fed is a much better steward than Congress. Increased interest rates cause stock market declines, so they also tend to act as a wealth tax.

Cutting spending is another way, but it's slow acting. It's more of "don't make things worse" than attacking the core problem of "too much money".

So if you hear somebody screaming about inflation, ask them if they support increased taxes.
