You think the U.S. has inflation issues

It is easy to fall into the mentality of just focusing on our problems here in the U.S. To make matters worse, we often seem to think that we have “problems,” when by comparison most of us have not experienced “problems.”

For example, if you make $50,000 in the U.S. you are richer than 99% of the rest of the world. You can see where you rank here.

But as far as inflation goes, we as a country are calling our 4% inflation a “problem.” While I agree that we should try to make our country the best it can be, sometimes we just need to see things like this to put things into perspective.
