Great point about the quality of goods in CPI not being tracked, nobody ever talks about that.
Your summary seems to describe the current situation with US monetary policy pretty closely lol... Now the Fed is frantically trying to decrease the velocity of money via interest rates to curb "price inflation", which was really just devaluation of the currency, ridiculous.
