BLS announces our inflation estimates are crap

[CrusaderFrank]

We all know that grocery prices have more than doubled since the Biden Body Double was installed.

But when you check the Bernie Madoff accounting numbers at BLS, it shows only a fraction of that increase

How can this be? Easy peasy

They manipulate the data!

Biden: inflation is lower! (Because we stopped counting things you actually consume)

Remember FJB

As Bernie says... "it's my job"!

The Radical Left has always complained about American prosperity. They say that American prosperty is not fair too poor third world countries. Their great reset inflation is going to equalize everyone.

Inflation is destroying people's retirement savings.
People make sacrifices to save for their retirement, and then the Democrats destroy it.

Tell that to the Gullibles and Compliant .

Because accepting the evidence makes them look what they are --- Stupid .

Hate to throw a turd into the punch bowl, but this isn't a Biden thing or even new information. They have been doing "Hedonic quality adjustments" to understate inflation since the 1990's

They're reporting 10 percent inflation but if you look at the increases, its really 20-30 percent.

They do this all the time, every Admin does this. Why did you not whine like a 3 year old when Trump did it?

Seems to happen a lot....Reagan and Bush II both did the same thing...

Even Trump did this same thing...

That pile of junk coins and silver rounds I bought for $20 oz. a little over two years ago (and thought I was getting greased then) is over $30 today....But there's no inflation!

An inflation calculator does not lie....I'm surprised that they are still available for the great unwashed to use.

Inflation Calculator​
	If in 2020		(enter year)
	I purchased an item for $1.00
	then in 2024		(enter year)
	that same item would cost: $1.21
	Cumulative rate of inflation: 21.1%

Notice they dropped coffee, canned tomatoes and vegetable oil from the calculation — and pass the savings onto the actual inflation numbers

Hold on I'm trying to fake a shocked face...

Trump applies a very simple – and deeply dishonest – approach to telling the story of America’s economy: Everything his opponents do is designed to destroy it, and only he can fix it.​

​

And if the economic data doesn't support Trump's claims, he plays the victim of a rigged system. This way, in his own telling, Trump can never be wrong. Either his policies saved the day, or his rivals cheated him out of victory.​
