It's hard to reconcile 2% inflation with consumer prices dropping.

I'm not a mathologist, but a 2% rise would be inflation, prices going down would be deflation and 0 movement either way would be stagnation. SS COLA will be 2.8% for 2026, but Medicare increases are likely to exceed 2.8%, according to forecasters.
