Agreed—inflation in many consumer goods is very real.

Confession—I just bought coffee at a Starbucks this morning (ducking under desk.. :-) ).

The price just rose for the second time in the past year—for their lousy overpriced coffee.

There is also shrink-flation where the package size shrinks while the package stays the same.

Health care costs, college costs, house prices and rents—the list goes on and on.

Computers and printers are cheaper, but really...

One of the first things Obama liar/idiot did was to remove food and fuel from the Inflation calculation used by the FedGov.

You know, stuff that actually matters to people. The reason Obastard did this was because it would have shown him to be the total incompetent moron he truly was/is.

Yes, electronics are cheaper, everything is is quite a lot more expensive than it was. Adding $2,500.00 in cost for every man woman and child in the US, (Obamacare idiocy) could not help but drive up inflation.
