"Inflation exists, just not worrisome inflation, and the future indicators are pointing down."

Inflation is there and deflation is there. It just depends which way you are looking. Maybe if you sum the two, you get some nice moderate inflation picture, but that does nothing negate the fact that most people are getting cut twice: once from having their biggest asset deflate (house) and once from inflation in must have goods. Meanwhile their wages are going nowhere fast.

So what is going on now is definitely not the family friendly, economically pleasing, non worrisome inflation of yesteryear. If your method of observation cannot tell the difference between the two, you might need a different method... IMHO
