This is an interesting dynamic. I keep reading how people are hurting. I feel bad for people, especially those with modest income, but there seems to also be a lot of hyperbole in the discussion.Damn it. Hate when inflation continues to recede and prices continue to lower.
Clearly not “won” but heading in the right direction.
That's the new narrative being spun in the right wing media ecosystem because they know their viewers/listeners/readers are economically and financially illiterate.A different opinion from earlier in this thread: if prices don’t fall back to 2020 levels then inflation (despite current data) is OUT OF CONTROL!
In 1960 a can of Coke cost ten cents and now it's $1.59. When will we get inflation under control and return to the low prices we were used to????That's the new narrative being spun in the right wing media ecosystem because they know their viewers/listeners/readers are economically and financially illiterate.
To get back to 2020 levels would require going through another Trump created pandemic recession.A different opinion (not mine) from earlier in this thread: if prices don’t fall back to 2020 levels then inflation (despite current data) is OUT OF CONTROL!

It all depends. If it is at a convenience store and it cold and ready to drink, probably.A can of Coke costs $1.59?
That would be deflation. There wasn't deflation after the 1980 recession (inflation + stagnation), or the 1982 recession. Just almost 18 years of prosperity across 3 Presidents..A different opinion (not mine) from earlier in this thread: if prices don’t fall back to 2020 levels then inflation (despite current data) is OUT OF CONTROL!
Nah let’s do nothing and see what happens!!!!I don't even pay taxes in the US so I have no feeling about the value I get or don't get for taxes paid.
There is a staggering amount of interest being paid out to service the debt created by the federal deficit. That deficit can be attacked by one of two ways, raising taxes or reducing spending.
Yeah, I was mocking the sentiment, just for the record. I think you knew that but wanted to be clear.That would be deflation. There wasn't deflation after the 1980 recession (inflation + stagnation), or the 1982 recession. Just almost 18 years of prosperity across 3 Presidents..
