I didn't say anything about the USA, and, maybe I'm wrong, but somehow I doubt there was not people becoming homeless, after a disease, in the USA, 30 years ago.
Anyway, if you are not going to use the official indicators of inflation there is not point in discussing anything. I could tell you that my indicator is computing process per dollar and claim a terrible deflation.
On nearly any other country, you won't find people claiming "you have some guys that predict inflation for 30 years and are always wrong", because their non-misleading numbers almost always have some period of high inflation on the last 30 years. But if you have some other one in mind, it will be interesting to look at it.

Take a look of healthcare expenses there compared to personal income going back those 30 years. If you still think it was as easy for a person to get bankrupt by them back there as it is now, well, I'm curious about your analysis.
