The real trend is deflation.
People are having fewer children.
Fewer miles are driven to fewer offices for fewer trips in cars.
Fewer impulse buys are being made and fewer dollars will be made by advertisements (according to the ops conjecture).
This is not inflationary. It is the opposite.
We live in a deeply deflationary world and we should not be confused by the local, transitory inflation that we may be experiencing at this moment.

- bobsmooth 2y agoMaybe if everyone becomes skinny we'll start having more sex because everyone looks better.
- immibis 2y agoMonetary deflation is easy to solve: just print more money. But who do you give it to? Well, obviously, you give it to billionaires because they are the best at managing money because they're billionaires. They can then spend it on wages, without having to produce anything useful because they are just getting free printed money.
