    We’re taking about the consumer price index here. Inflation regarding the cost of living only. This is, as i hinted previously, heavily caused not by “inflation” (as youd consider it in econ 101) but corporate price-gouging.

    Corporate price-gouging is i feel i must add capital N Not inflation in the traditional sense… But in the scope of this article and our conversation, it is.

    So again, fucking-A yes I want price gouging to stop, right now… So like, if you wish to continue wit me we need to agree on terms. Let me know you agree this cpi definition and inflation in this case is “price gouging” otherwise we may as well just part ways
