You beat me to it. You have to be quick around here. Shadowstats is by far the best for honest econometric analysis.
Based on my experience seeing 10% yoy inflation in food, shadow stats is accurate.
so, we are now up to what inflation rate, 13% (if i read the graph correctly)?
isn’t that getting somewhat close to a jimmy carter era level rate? /* rhetorical */
That 1980-Based CPI chart is pretty realistic and accurately reflects the CURRENT ACTUAL inflation rate, IMHO. In six short months of Biden & crew’s governance our nation has been driven into Jimmy Carter’s inflation range… except we now (June 2021) have a national debt of $28.5 Trillion instead of the $908 Billion (billions… not trillions) that Jimmy had in 1980.
God help us!
