Explain this to me, please. I buy a house for 1/2 million for a 15 year fixed mortgage. In 7 years, the price becomes 1 million, but my mortgage remains the same. In 15 years, the price becomes 2 million, and my mortgage payment is 0. How is this inflationary from a consumer price perspective, even though my asset price inflation has been in excess of 10%/year?

Tell me what a good methodology should be, since IYO the present methodology is bad.

BTW, since it is not new methodology, don't blame the present administration for using it.
