This model is quite literally how they condition everything into you. Gas prices raise two dollars, breaking records, everyone freaks out, they lower gas prices a $1.50, everyone cheers. Few months later repeat. We are compromising ourselves into having nothing. They take a mile, we fight and settle to get half of what we lost back, then they do it again.
Prices always trend upwards. That is inflation, and our current system requires inflation to function.
