The voters remember the large inflation, and the gaslighting around it.

Reduced business activity generally means less aggregate demand, putting deflationary pressure on prices.

That’s an exaggerated form of what goes on now.  The concept is called transfer pricing.

Technically, it’s not inflation, it’s a price increase.

NASA has shown it only has one job it can competently do: Pay invoices to SpaceX.
