A rising Yuan would also help the situation so they could import food more easily when shortages appeared in certain foods. Their inflation is caused by the artificially weak currency. They also import a lot of oil.

It seems China will have a bad harvest this year because of droughts and other disasters, and that will push up food prices further, he said. Raising their interest rates won't improve the harvest.

The problem was the government not having the correct supply side policies to meet the higher demand, not the little guy making more money.
