This was obviously going to happen when you have a static number and inflation keeps going up. Inflation between 2022 and 2025 has been huge. Perhaps not 25% huge, but a large part of this "growth of payers" is just due to inflation.
- potatolicious 1y agoThis doesn't remotely begin to compute. Inflation is a measure of prices of goods and services, not of incomes. There is no reason to believe that high inflation results in higher nominal incomes. Heck the opposite is true - it's why high inflation is so despised, specifically because prices outrun income growth.
