Peak Prosperity, Released on 9/16/23

Believe it or not, the current bout of inflation is worse than the bad old inflation of the 1970’s. Hyperbole? No, because when we look at a long-term chart of CPI-adjusted prices we see that the last two years have the steepest slope on record. But anybody who’s been shopping already knows this. You can easily fit $150 worth of groceries into a single paper shopping bag now. It’s depressing and alarming.
