Wow Deflation is hitting food hard. Food up only 4.2% while pixelated $ are up 15% [I haven't checked but I guess 15%]: <Food prices are up 4.2 percent for 12 months ending in July.>

So, DDEEU should be what's happening in financial relativity theory and hey presto, it is. Dollar Down, Everything Else Up.

People in the USA are a bit confused though, because their pay rates aren't zooming up in that relativity theory.

That's because they are not the only people on the planet wanting to work and get some money. There are about 300 million people in the USA, [some of whom are newly-invaded Mexicans], but there are 6,000 million people on Earth, nearly all of whom earn less money per hour than do Americans.

Their pay rates are rising as companies around the world hire them to do more and more as the local yokel's governments get their kleptocratic boots off their serf citizens' necks and allow capital to flow in and goods and services to flow out.

It's true the world economy is growing and everyone wants a little stash of US$, so the USA can print more and more of them while appearing to have prices stay about the same. It's the greatest game in human history. The people who own the US$ money machine can produce more pixels of dollars and sell them.

They are helicoptering them by the bushel.

Serf city works in China, India, Vietnam, Big Ben helicopters, food prices rise slightly as measured in US$, but decline measured against other things such as oil, gold, platinum.

It's just financial relativity theory in action.
