What you're saying is a complete misunderstanding of the supply. When miners solidify a block and get a block reward, they are NOT creating new coins. They are releasing coins from the locked supply. The system already has 21 million Bitcoin embedded in the code. That number cannot be changed except by a hard fork that nobody would support. The inflation rate is for circulating supply, not total supply.
