CNN just told me inflation ain't gonna happen.....
Uh, how much did you pay for gas this week?

And that isn't gonna translate? They said it was because we were buying our goodies from third world countries...

What's gonna happen tomorrow when we can't afford to ship it here to be bought by Walmart employees?

3. CNN also told me I should be paralyzed with fear...
...on thursday afternoon, even though every person-on-the-street interviewee in London was, shall we say, NOT paralyzed with fear.

CNN has a giant stick up its ass, and its name is Fox News.

5. With outsourcing things go down in price (civil goods) except oil.
Also the internet will take a chunk our of the salaries of many professionals...like journal its. So they cancel each other out. And are meant to. The only way inflation will start up is if oil goes crazy or 'guest worker laws' are not past. Then in 2014 when the boomers start to retire - wages will rise.
