    A complete disconnect between language and reality.
    It’s as if the editors don’t even bother to read the titles, let alone the whole articles, before publishing.
    The entire article has the tone that increases in nearly all consumer prices is a double-plus-good, but a decrease would be a super-double-plus-un-good.

    Thanks Doc, for pointing out this one–in a doubly-plus-concisely way.

    Well, the article is about disinflation. Whoever wrote the headline is probably in the wrong job.
