So I run out and do some errands. Car wash at the gas station, that used to be free when you bought 8 gallons, went to $10 over the last few years. Today it was $11. That's a 10% hike.

I won't even get into housing and energy costs.

Same as all the others, you need to print the money that is assumed into it.Inflation is the only way to pay for idiocies that can never balance such as the student loan market, derivative investment leverage, and subprime housing. Get ready for more of it.
How does inflation do anything to "derivative investment leverage".
