Inflation is dependent on the country you live in, many countries use different indexs to measure inflation and usually people tend to pick the one that benefits them the most.
Leaving a three word comment simplifying something quite ambiguous is laughable
The latest report from a day or so ago said 4.2% so I dunno what you are trying to say. They were trying to be brief and just point out that a raise less than inflation is decrease overall

Their point was even if you say its only 4% (costs are way higher)
The person is making less than they were the previous year.
I understand their point, but inflation wasn’t 4%

I’m trying to tell you inflation wasn’t 4% in the same way youre telling me it is.
You’re assuming something I highlighted in my first comment, and I’m doing the same to make a point.
the internet isn’t american
Absolutely true. I don’t even live in the US. However, I do happen to know that it’s at least 4% over there, and, disturbingly, here.
