The “government spending is driving inflation” argument will also be confusing then because presumably government spending will also still be high. Oh well, problems to worry about in 5 months.
Grocery chains have basically come out and said 'screw you, prices are going up.'

Some fancy metric from the government saying 'inflation' is down doesn't mean families aren't still hurting when it comes to the essentials. Like food.
