This is the part I understand unfortunately. How does it eventually lead to inflation though?

The inflation is largely an artifact of unbridled money printing and wage stagnation. It looks like they want to lower prices by paying people even less. This will only inflame the contradictions further and eventually lead to civil unrest.
