all I see is uncontrolled raging inflation..................... And yet: Weekly wages adjusted for inflation fell 0.7% last month and are down 0.2% over the past year, according to a report last week by the labor department. Pay has been flat or declined in more than half of the 65 months since January 2001." ( Message 22598218 ) How is it possible to have both at the same time? If buyers can't afford to pay the increasing prices, that simply means that there will be a scarcity of buyers. Prices will have to come down. It takes two to tango. Prices can't keep inflating if there isn't enough liquidity out there to pay them.
