> As a general rule, inflation disproportionately harms people who can't easily adjust their income upwards.

That's actually interesting. Especially in countries with job safety, where you can't fire one easily, nor reduce their salary without consent (such as France, Germany, ...) this seems to be an easy way for employers to "adjust" salary and essentially get people fired who earn "too much" from the perspective of the employer.

On the other hand, this is good for people who _can_ negotiate their salary upwards.

Would be interesting to have this part covered in more detail.
