Slow inflation is the norm. Because if you have whole generations working and aren't experiencing growth things are deeply wrong. Not just "corporate lobbyists or those connected to officals have disproportionate influence" wrong but "masses of people working cannot improve their skills, processes, or products at all".

That is a very hard state to get even as a paranoid police state or literal aristocracy which views a minority of small farmer able to sustain their own plot as an existential threat. It is deeply unnatural in the "low probability" sense like your cat walking back and forth across a keyboard or swatting at it and writing passages of famous authors low.
