They’re changing the way inflation is calculated again to make things look like they’re “not that bad”

During 2024 (election year) none of the consumption data from 2022 will be included

Great catch this is key if they can show inflation on the decline when it really is just getting started,it calculates into X number of votes which is all they care about.These criminals are capable of anything done to anyone or any population.

Laughable headline to common folks in the USA:

Yellen: Inflation Has Been ‘Quite Low for the Last Six Months’

Yellen said, “Inflation has really been quite moderate, quite low for the last six months or so, importantly, because of lower energy prices. We continue to see improvement in supply chains. Goods prices have actually been falling. And some of the supply chain issues that pushed up the prices of goods and commodities, those have really turned around. Rent indexes continue to rise. But, really, we see those coming down substantially over the next six months or so.”

Clueless or evil or both?

What about eggs, Janet? And most food prices have risen 15% in the past six months.

Hey, I'm not a filthy rich government big wig who probably has someone shopping for them, what do I know?
