There are easier ways to control the economy that doesn't piss off players. Crono has stated this, which I also stated before: give them stuff to buy.

Monthly rent on apartments, houses and such, perhaps even a system that has the player pay for the content in their house(a big screen TV would cost more than a small one, for example). If people have the money for something, they will buy it, the problem is there's nothing for these rich people to buy except inflated guns... guns get inflated because they're sparse and people have all that money to spend on it. If they were too busy paying house payments and perhaps insurance on a car, they wouldn't have the money to pay for an expensive ass gun, thus the guns would never sell at insanely high prices.
