Wages and benefits rise a weak 1.5 percent in 2009, the lowest in 27 years. The Consumer Price Index (inflation) rose 2.7% in 2009. Collectively, we are all worse off because of inflation. The fact that wages rose at all with unemployment so high suggests to me that inflation, if the economy manages to get to another boom period before the dollar crisis happens, will be extreme.
