Was the 2% inflation plan supposed to be permanent? It really seems like it was intended to just be temporary until we could figure out a better system. I ask this sitting in a house that 50 years ago was worth about $15,000, was 5 years ago worth over $1,000,000 and is now worth about $500,000. I have to imagine that, for the vast majority of people (a.k.a. people who aren't hedge fund managers and bank CEOs), a more stable, slower to change system would be much better.
