I’ve heard the CPI is cooked, but this guy destroys it as a figment of a federal kleptocrat’s wildest imagination.

Unfortunately, he doesn't actually do any measurements. That would take hard work and people would ask him to show his data.

Uncle Miltie,

Toddsterpatriot has a thing about the information on John Williams and will play Alinksy like word and logic games to make Williams work look worthless.

The accuracy of Williams outcome CPI depends upon the accuracy of Williams’ adjustment.

Toddsterpatriot has never addressed nor denied the corruption of the CPI by using soft metrics such as hedonics or the substitution effect, both of which are wide open to manipulation by the latest power that be.
