How can you not see that we are NOT/NOT at a high level of inflation?! You yourself stated inflation is running at 2.4% now (though you conveniently neglected to mention 2.5% in 2024).

And no, nothing you presented spoke to people’s income and standard of living. Income has gone up, standard of living is more difficult to capture.
