Wallmart thing is interesting. When I go there, or other cheap stores, I find it
quite difficult to find items stating something different from "made in China".
So? You've got a point here, but... if Chinese export products are really
that big of a part of the US economy, we are in trouble. China is already
overheating. Unlike US, their policy is to manipulate Forex, not interest
rates. So, you've got your answer - Wallmart goods inflation will show up
when China depegs Yuan (JMHO).

Then again, how much does one really spend at Wallmart? I think my
total health insurance bill is running twice higher than what I spend
monthly at Wallmart. If Gas, rent and utilities are included, that will
compose the real inflation rate. I think inflation for gas, health care, and
housing is running in the teens. Something everyone has to pay every
day to continue living. I can say for sure, that my expenses are not
deflating -g-
