This conversation is not productive, nor helpful.

Powell/GS has promised it is transitory and so has President Biden. The fact that you are paying more for everything now is just temporary. Soon things will be back to normal, especially after we embrace the new green deal and approve the 3 trillion $$$ stimulus. It's different this time, Powell has the ability to create trillions with the snap of a finger and buy all the US Government debt indefinitely.

Good job inventing a strawman and then knocking it down with sarcasm.

Inflation going down to 0% means prices stay high

No one, Powel/GS/Biden et. al, is talking about deflation in the next 5 years

Not even once Rs take the house and the Green New Deal is doomed forever and ever. Not even that will bring deflation, sorry to burst your bubble
