I missed your post about this:

"Consumer price inflation eased more than expected in March as
President Donald Trump prepared to launch tariffs against U.S. trading
partners, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Thursday.

The consumer price index, a broad measure of goods and services costs
across the U.S. economy, fell a seasonally adjusted 0.1% in March,
putting the 12-month inflation rate at 2.4%, down from 2.8% in
February.

Excluding food and energy, so-called core inflation ran at a 2.8%
annual rate, having increased 0.1% for the month. That was the lowest
rate for core inflation since March 2021.

Wall Street had been looking for headline inflation of 2.6% and core
at 3%, according to the Dow Jones consensus."

Could you point me to the link of your post?

Idiot.

Never in the history of humanity has there ever been a civilization

Not Rome, not Egypt, not China or the oldest, India.
