Bull Market Hits a Milestone: 3,453 Days – Most Americans Aren’t at the Party

Those are both problems that have nothing to do with currency or the economic concept of 'currency devaluation.'

Inflation has barely been present in the US for the last 10 years compared to historical levels.

The reason your healthcare bill and your rent have increased much faster than inflation (I'm guessing you're in the bay area) is because of US federal government failings in the case of healthcare; and in terms of rent the geographic limitations, rapid growth, and local government failings of the area you've chosen to live in.

This is the definition of currency inflation.

Goods and services costing more in my currency than they used to—and trust me, the housing hasn’t gotten any nicer, nor my healthcare services.
