I break down four of the biggest lies we’re told about inflation, from the idea that prices must always rise to the fantasy that GDP growth means we’re getting richer.

If you’ve ever wondered why everything feels more expensive and more fragile, this is a quick demolition of the stories we’ve been sold.
