    The inflation rate of descriptive language is however still worryingly high.

    What have the journalists got left in their arsenal, if 0.5% lower than expected is a plunge, and 5.6% is crashing back to earth, will they even be able to describe inflation dropping back to the levels typical of the past few years?

        Inflation has contracted.sommuch that it has contracted the universe and reversed the big bang. Scientists wonder if the big bang theory was ever accurate or it was just inflation run amok all along.
