This point is really irritating. When pundits complain about the public being wrong on the economy, they constantly ignore the fact that inflation has been very high for many months, prices went up, so even if inflation is lower now - the prices are still up. I can see the impact of it every time I go to the grocery store.
- laidoffamazon 2y agoYes but you also make more money. American's buying power has literally never been higher.

- laidoffamazon 2y agoThat's a you problem, not something shown by the wage growth data.
