The problem with inflation is that the cat can never go back in the bag. Sure, the Fed says they have inflation “under control” at the moment, but it’s still way higher than where pre-covid projections predicted it would be at this time, and real wages have not nearly caught up to the increased prices that literally everyone who earns a paycheck for a living is feeling right now.
