The rightoids have abused the award system to protect themselves from losing arguments for too long.
The rightoid powers of this community, as dim as they might be are unified behind one cause: the destruction of our values and the nullification of free expression, when that expression contradicts their deranged fantasies.
The admin team has fired a warning shot across the hull of the rightoid blob. I have been made immune to awards.
Be warned future action is planned should rightoids continue to debase our community.

You are claiming it was an insignificant part. And that 0.5% CPI increase is from just one of the spending packages. It doesnt take in to account the other cash injecting measures.

The studies done have not shown any of the stimulus to be a large percentage or current American inflation, let alone global.

If your 0.5 figure for the one stimulus package is correct and we're at 7% inflation (vs the nornal 2%) then yeah 0.5 is 10% of the difference. That's significant.
Post degrees and income so I know I'm not wasting time on a poor r-slur (high probability)

There was deflation in many sectors of the economy.
For example travel.
