is Heinz aware of health insurance inflation? in 1990 my insurance premium was $42 a month. today it is $514. where does healthcare fit into this deflation scenario? where do higher housing costs fit in? where do higher energy and food costs fit in?


deflation doesn't mean everything goes down in price. I believe he defines it was a decrease in the money supply. things like health insurance and oil are deflationary, since increases can't be passed along and margins get squeezed.
