understood, my point is that day-day living isn’t getting easier for the majority so the majority of the deflation is on the nice to haves and not the sustenance items. Remember ~40% of the population is outside the labor force at this point.
I’ll also note that looking at that website:
2014 2015
lb Potatoes .49 .78
gal milk 3.15 3.98
doz eggs 1.98 2.77
Number of other similar numbers - so yes some commodities are down and some are up. overall of the 19 items in the shopping basket 7 are down, 3-4 are flat and the rest are up. The down items are down less than the up items in most cases.
