So food speculators are responsible for the increases in the cost of food?
Car speculators drive up new car prices?
Flower speculators drive up the prices of market packs?

Sure, maybe some, but the inflated dollar is just worth less than it was. The price of a bbl of oil costs about the same in terms of gold as it has for some years.
