What always gets me about this is the people "with" money dont actually tend to have that much of it. It's all 'invested' in other things like land and such.

So any inflation rate without wage increase just affects the usual suspects - namely those of us who don't have money to spend nevermind save.

So in the end it just ends up being a lie sold by the exploitive elite just like trickle down economics.
