It causes increased prices. Not inflation. Inflation is the printing of money.

inflation is an increase in the general price level of goods and services in an economy. When the general price level rises, each unit of currency buys fewer goods and services; consequently, inflation corresponds to a reduction in the purchasing power of money.

Inflation has nothing to do with printing money. It's merely a consequence of printing money or raising the price of goods without an equivalent adjustment to the value of the currency.

"It has nothing to do with printing money."

That's literally all inflation is. Everything else, like rising prices, is a consequence of that.

You are incorrect. Price inflation is caused by inflation. Inflation is literally "inflating" the money supply.

Sometimes I like to imagine what my life would be like if we didn't all have to pay so much in taxes.

If you look at my paycheck, taxes are more than my mortgage. I'm literally buying the government a better house than I can afford for myself with what's left.

The government is literally forcing me at gunpoint to buy them a house bigger than my own. If the public viewed taxes in this light they would revolt.

Don't forget about property tax, sales tax, gas tax, food tax, utility taxes, gift tax, inheritance tax etc. The rate is significantly higher than what you see on your pay stub.

Currency is a commodity. The more of it there is, the less value it has.

As a multiple property owner, I have to raise my rents to just break even. Landscaping, water, taxes ,etc eat into profits so much you really don't make all that much.
