You're saying that the harder it is to obtain money, the higher the value of materials.
So clearly, the poorer the community, the best way to make money is to value materials well above the price people can afford.
Materials work on supply and demand. If demand is high and supply is low, price per material will be high. If demand is high and supply is high, prices will drop slowly as people start cutting each other's prices. If materials continue to drop in high abundance, demand will lower but supply will remain high.
The addition of higher drop rates, particularly bosses dropping multiple HM or lumps, increased the supply.
