That’s nice and all, but wages do not increase year over year for most people, so most people would prefer those risks and be able to continue living, instead of helping to balloon the suicide statistic.
Most people are not economists. Most people would like everyone to be given $100,000 and a pony (or just white people, if you’re a republican).
2% inflation is good. But an inflation number doesn’t tell us where the gains are accruing. Ensuring gains go to workers and not capital is an entirely separate goal of the government.
