Many people under 50 don't care about inflation because they owe money, they certainly don't have money - it's all be taken by rent seekers.

Then all that nonsense about lumber earlier in the year, blaming QE for supply problems. Lumber prices now 1/3rd what they were a few months ago.

Usually people care about inflation in the context of cost of living vs their earnings, not their net assets.
