Like why can’t a head of lettuce go back to costing 1 cent?
Or, maybe more realistically, after dealing with crazy inflation for the last couple of years, why can’t prices just go back to pre-pandemic, pre-inflation levels, once the factors that *caused* the inflation in the first place have been resolved?

What people are saying about the evils of deflation is right, but also remember that prices on particular goods frequently do come back down. But no one reports on that. Think about gas prices. You always see poliyocal comics claiming they never go back down when the supply issues clear up . . . and yet gas prices do frequently fall again.
