OK, I'll bite. Exactly who has said "there isn't inflation"? We've seen inflation for the last 50 years except maybe once. Prices almost always rise. Inflation can be stated as declining, decelerating or falling but prices still rise, so we still have inflation. However, it's not "in leaps", unless you want to keep harping on 2022. We are running under 4% for the last 6 months, which is still elevated but is far from being "a mess out there".
