    Disagree with me how? The inflation rate has objectively decreased from last year and the year prior. That doesn’t mean prices have gone down, just that they’re going up now at a rate closer to the historical average over the past century. People absolutely can afford less now than 3 years ago after inflation spiked, but with it returning to average levels, wages are also starting to catch up more.

    These are all general population trends also, and can’t be used to describe or predict any one person’s situation
