There is no false impression. Did you say there was a false impression when gas prices spiked?

No because gas price increases did not give a false impression of the direction of consumer prices.
A report that consumer prices fell .6% for the month is misleading without clarification. That is a annualized Deflation rate of 7.2%.An actual deflation rate this large would very likely signal a depression.
People on Free Republic often do not think through a report or can't think through it before they see a plot by the MSM.
