Wages actually haven't been stagnant in recent years they've gone up a bit. I think we are close to the 2% target for the rate economists say should be the target for inflation. I will say though if we can't get it under control more people will continue to move from the more expensive states and cities.

In theory, if inflation and prices continue to rise, the Fed will increase interest rates to a point to where inflation slows down. This will also cause a downturn in the economy causing an increase in unemployment.

We are actually seeing this in real time now with the Fed now, as inflation has slowed down to a respectable rate (I think 2%) and we are seeing the 2nd rate cut.

For majority of people getting a home and even getting a new vehicle will be out the picture

Used cars are going to be the way to go

And for homes u have a lot of these corporations buying homes and over pricing them

Well at a certain point the people/consumers would stop and demand shyt change


But as we’ve seen Americans are p*ssy and dumb and hate each other :manny: So the masses will just keep buying things and spending more while talking down on the people that refuse/can’t afford it.
