Gotta love Darius laughing at the thought of giving us all raises to combat inflation. "If we give everyone raises for inflation are they going to be okay with pay-cuts when inflation goes down? Chuckles"
I do not know how he thinks inflation works, but it could drop down to zero for year over year next year and we would all still be feeling the impacts of inflation from this year because the no change in price from a price that was 9% higher is still much higher than the 3% raise. So unless there is deflation, we would still need a raise to keep up with inflation.
But I guess he doesn't get what we all feel since we make 0.00003% of what he makes.
