Here are some statistics for you, Kirkland. As you can plainly see, inflation for the past decade has been way above what governments have been saying and has far outstripped any increases in wages. I am also interested in the experiences of others, but so far people are a bit shy to vote in my inflation thread. Overall, with non-government sourced data and the general experience of forum posters, I believe this little debate is over. Deflation happens in places like Greece and as of yet has not happened in the UK and it certainly hasn't happened here either.
