That's funny, MY inflation was almost zero and my wages went up 4% last year...hmmm.

It's ridiculous to write stories like these that throw in ALL wages earned and try and compare that to the ridiculous calculation the government uses for inflation.

Both factors are different for every person because of individual choices made.

You didn't pay more for gas, electricity, oil, meat, etc. Where do you live?

Bingo!

If a person is willing to accept the wages, then they must live with it. It is a free country, a person is free to go seek another job, start their own business, or be an entrepreneur. I myself prefer commission sales.
