I couldn't disagree more - inflation is a predictable economic phenomenon that responsible investors and savers factor into their strategies. Blaming it on a "silent tax" oversimplifies the issue and lets policymakers off the hook.

what exactly are those "responsible strategies" you're referring to? asking for a friend struggling with rising costs.

I hear what you're saying, but I also think inflation is a major challenge that's hurting a lot of everyday people. Policymakers need to do more to address the root causes and provide real relief, not just let it slide.
