More and more I'm coming to the conclusion that we are heading into Stagflation.   Or rather... are already there... and just haven't caught up to it yet on the indicators, due the the inflation occuring in sneakier ways that aren't tracked as eaisly, such as product repackaging rather then product price increases.

The big problem of this is of course... the cure to stagflation is the EXACT opposite of what we're doing now... and grinds the economy to a halt short term.

Yeah, I think we're there. We're only missing high inflation according to the CPI, but CPI is a notoriously bad measure of actual inflation.
