85% of US inflation is wage related.There will be no significant inflation until full employment.The inflation in non wage related inflation (gold,oil,copper) is just the dollar going to its new value as we proceed to full employment.Elmatador would say our return to natural size.In Europe they are using the unemployed to keep Euro high.I would have rather let our banks collapse first, as the 0.5% should have lost more than half their wealth--then nationalise the banks.Now that we are here, we need a long period of 3-5% a year inflation with certain key tax changes.When inflation appears the average worker will see 85% of the inflation compensated for via their wage going up.The other 15% is a cost of return to natural size and will be paid via technology or GDP growth and not even felt.Those who do not see the 85% component of inflation compensated in their pay checks (SS people getting more than they ever paid in) will see that because it is societies choice that they win or lose.
