DETROIT, MI ~ According to Business Insider, the inflation rate in the United States has dropped from 2.9% to 2.7% from the end of 2024 to the end of 2025, spanning most of the first year of President Donald Trump‘s second term. Despite this, prices for everyday needs like food and electricity increased. “Inflation is down and wages are up,” Director of the Center for Civic Engagement and Political Science Professor at Oakland University Dave Dulio said on “All Talk.” “But the perception of the economy among the public is that they’re sort of behind the eight ball because people are still feeling the effects of inflation from a few years ago that drove prices up.”
