Whenever I see any talk about "inflation going down" or "deflation is coming," I get why this propaganda is being put out, but it is completely retarded if you understand that even a slight decrease in prices or a slowing of inflation is not going to help much.

It is like going from 60 mph to 90 mph and then hitting the breaks a little to go 85 instead. "See, we are slowing down now!" The going slower by 5 mph is not as important to factor in the long term when 60 was previously the norm.
