Huh? Inflation is very real. The dollars I saved from 20 years ago buy a lot less across the consumer spectrum. Prices don't go up, the money's purchasing power goes down. That is not a "boogeyman", it's theft by the inflation tax.
yes it's very real, but it is used as a black-and-white "any and all inflation is bad" thing like in my example, especially when discussed on its own instead of holistically combined with things like economic growth and interest rates and other things.
