Inflation is cooling down on paper, sure. But walk into any grocery store or gas station? The price tags tell a different story. American households are getting crushed by the spike in essentials—food, energy, rent. That relief everyone was promised hasn't exactly made it to people's wallets.

Number plunge, real price increase, the gap is really outrageous

Cooling on paper? I think the data is misleading. A trip to the supermarket will tell you otherwise.

Official interest rate cuts are really funny; I can barely afford to buy groceries anymore.

Numbers look good, but as soon as I go grocery shopping, I realize that this inflation hasn't really gone down at all.

Cooling on paper, but still bleeding in the wallet.
