Isn’t food exempt from the inflation calculations?

These folks are utterly clueless in how inflation is calculated - and what a certain batch of politicians did to cause that fraudulent method to be used. Here’s a hint:

Cost of living and inflation calculations no longer include such luxuries as groceries. They were labeled as “commodities” and thus too volatile to be used in the calculation (never mind - it is the single greatest direct expense for the average consumer and family).

Fuel is also not counted - for the same reason.

The thing is - almost no real expense is up ONLY 6.4%. Eggs - 300%+ Fuel is still nearly 2X what it was when the fraud election of 2020 took place. Electricity is up far more than 6.4%. Natural gas as well. About the only thing cheaper today than when Biden was fraudulently elected and installed - are LED TVs!

Even the Chinese crap from Wish .com is more expensive!!!
