Hasn't inflation gone down to ~3%?
- COGlory 3y agoHas it? Nothing in my life except gasoline has gotten any cheaper. Edit: I misread the comment. I am aware of the difference between rates and absolutes.
- ahtihn 3y agoWhy would it get cheaper with a low inflation rate? Low inflation rate means stuff get more expensive slower. It's still getting more expensive.

- dagw 3y agoThat isn't what the inflation number means. An inflation rate of 0% means prices stop going up and stay at their current level, not that prices go down. Prices going down would be deflation, and that almost certainly won't happen.

- u320 3y agoThe other mistake you made was assuming that your personal experience is valid for the economy as a whole.
- COGlory 3y agoNo, I made it quite clear it was a question.
