maybe because they don't account for things like petrol or energy costs or rent or pretty much anything relevant anymore when calculating it. It's one of the biggest scams of them all inflation - the rate that gets officially reported is wildly disproportional to the actual increase in living expenses - do you think your you can buy the same is just as good as it was 10 years ago? No? I bet you can buy maybe half the stuff you could them with the same amount of money.

Well I guess what - that just doesn't happen on a 1% inflation rate now does it.

>do you think your you can buy the same is just as good as it was 10 years ago? No?
Actually yes, it's not that different from 10 years ago

t. lives with parents and doesn't pay bills and thinks vidya and chink shit on amazon is what people spend money on

I'm retired early and live by myself, faggot. Since we're talking in anecdotes here, there's mine. Inflation has been low

Competition with Chinks keeps prices low.

Wait till the Democrats get a majority in the US and you'll see what real inflation is like. Hope you got plenty of bottled water stored

All the money is just accumulating in stock buybacks that further enrich the wealthy. Inflation can't occur if the newly printed money never circulates.

Publicizing the true rate of inflation would cause riots.

Nah. It wouldn't at all. You srly think there will be riots or anything close to a revolution? The current generation is degenerated as fuck and as long they have a shelter, food and WiFi, they are happy.
