It's all so tiresome.

Yes, it's good that inflation is down, but that does absolutely nothing to address prices as they are. Inflation is the derivative of price. You have to reckon with the area under the whole ass curve.

It's also annoying to hear about wage increases as if they go up every pay cycle. Most people I know (myself included) get an annual review and that's the only time pay increases occur. For that matter, I haven't gotten a raise to even keep up with inflation in nearly 3 years.
