Interesting article. Then maybe we'll be ok. Still, the article talks about what MAY happen. My post was on what has already happened. Rents have increased quite a bit over the last few years and that represent inflation for the 99%. Of course, the Fed doesn't count inflation in food, fuel, or anything else that the 99% cares about. If you stopped eating veal and substituted with horse meat, the Fed says there was no inflation, but how do you feel about that? I personally would count that as inflation, because the price of veal has skyrocketed and now I have to eat horse meat to get my protein.
