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.

If people have stuff to buy, they'll be able to then sell it. For example, a locker costs $50 to buy. But then, supply goes down, demand goes up, and they can turn around and sell it for 5k. The same would happen for new toys, apartments, guns, etc.
There's tons to buy on era, the problem is that the supply drops too much, and people can make a huge profit reselling items. You need some other form to control money. People might not even notice their bank account losing a few bucks every day. What's $10 per day to someone with over 100k in their account, and ads 1k per week?
