That's how inflation works.

> I don't care if we blame the current economic policy

You mean the previous one until January, that stopped the inflation, or the current one that is making a lot of it for the next months?

> I still would like to know where all that money went.

The money is cycling around people and companies. That's what money almost always do, the US was an exception until recently, but exceptions to that never last.

It is? Why have wages been so stagnant for so long? Isn't that one of the leading theories/reasons Trump was elected, people are completely strapped for cash. I had read recently that loans are being increasingly being paid late, credit card debt has grown massively, home prices and through the roof, and the job market is a disaster.

Where is all that money again?
