If you had been buying stuff all this time, you could believe your own eyes.
But seriously, between Believing Obama.gov and some nameless mook off the street, I would go with the nameless mook every single time. Besides that, i'm not the only one saying this stuff. Look around you. A lot of other people believe the same thing.
Are you seriously claiming that consumer prices doubled, during the weakest recovery in history?
I say nearly doubled. It is not quite double in cost. But then again, It may have doubled in cost if the difference in quantity is factored in.
Seriously, do you not remember what things cost before Obama?
Obama can fudge all the numbers he wants, that still doesn't help your claim.
Even Obama.gov shows an upward trend of 25% according to you. You can bet that that is the lowest possible number which their data can be made to fit.
I have been. Prices are up, not by 100%.

Most mooks are really bad at math.

Sure, still doesn't support your 100% claim.

According to the BLS, yes. 25% increase for food and beverages.
eggs are outrageous now.....I notice Fred Meyer had good peanut butter prices though...
bread seems to have stayed the same....meat very high...even turkeys...
overall it takes much more money today to buy what you could several years ago...even with a few items staying the same....
