Thank you! There is no government department or bureaucrat that isn’t political now. All covering for democrats. Can’t believe one thing.

And there’s this:

JANUARY 2023 CPI WEIGHT UPDATE
Starting with January 2023 data, the BLS plans to update weights annually for the Consumer Price Index based on a single calendar year of data, using consumer expenditure data from 2021. This reflects a change from prior practice of updating weights biennially using two years of expenditure data.

It would seems a rolling 2 years is more reperestantive.
