Corporate greed is a genuine issue that is, in some ways, seperate from currency valuation. And it is still a contributing factor. Sure, there are some false explanations that circulate but those can be debunked with enough self-education... much like how many of my friends and family have done. You underestimate how many people are actually aware of the fact that their currency is getting continuously debased. Lol YOU ARE IN A BUBBLE. These people who are unaware may be a majority percentage, but i feel you believe like 95% of the global population remain oblivious.
