IIRC inflation is the devaluation of the dollar and the laymen “inflation” people commonly talk about is the CPI, which is the actual price of goods and services (I.E. this is what you are actually paying, rather than how much power the dollar has overall). I could be wrong but it is an important distinction because it tells us exactly how F*ed we’re getting by companies and corporations.
