Negative Inflation?

Who came up with the idea that prices are going down? Do they have butlers who do all their shopping for them?

Someone, I don't know who, claims there should be no Social Security cost-of-living-adjustment (COLA), because of "negative inflation." I don't know where they shop, but I shop mainly at Walmart. True, some things went down, but they went right back up a few months later. (Walmart's "Rollbacks" are no longer forever, but only a couple months.)

And my prescription costs are basically doubling next year. Yes, I can afford it, but it adds up.

Barack, set these armchair economists straight---
