No inflation?

What country are they talking about.
It can’t be the USA.

Of course the government inflation data doesn’t show it - the measurements are structured and manipulated to do just that.

They are just about as distorted and untruthful as the government employment/unemployment figures.

But one trip around the supermarket tells the true story.

So I guess stagflation is a term of no meaning then.

Dumb ass.

Yep. And it’s not just prices. It’s the quantity being packaged now as well. It seems to be shrinking with several items. Anyone else notice this?
