    Thank goodness the rate at which calories get more expensive has gone down. Surely a reduction in how fast things get expensive means that we can now afford them despite their prices not getting lower.

      Don't worry, the global extreme poverty line is still stuck at a realistic-grounded-in-reality $1-2/day according to very serious people doing economic "science", so if you're above that you're good actually.
