You've put into words what I was thinking about the other day.

I always hear folks say "Weird there was no inflation after the 2008 stimulus" or even experts try to claim that there is none.

But it's not about inflation of everyday consumer goods, it's about the massive inflation in things that consumers don't purchase regularly (things like houses). And at this point, I think we've done a lot to essentially price regular consumers out of that market.

Think about that. We've priced regular folk out of things that build wealth. It's going to lead to something terrible down the road. Even more terrible than what we're already living in.
