From my grasp of it,The cantillon effect is an absolute rule as long as the network effect is not broken, while the government/banks/well-connected are increasing their share of the pie by printing the pie itself is getting smaller
If my % of the ownership of the Lira increases but what I can buy/people are willing to sell me for Lira decreases then it lessens the effect. As more people move to USD for example, your claims on others' savings and goods and services lessons.
As printing continues to consolidate Lira purchasing power you get a few people with a lot of lira and a lot of people who won't accept it.
Ok, that fills the gap in how I was looking at it. Thank you!
