[QUOTE="Jimi77, post: 8911555, member: 673702"] You are disingenuous. One, that was not an attempt by me to say that the CPI has been faked for 10 years to make Trump look bad. Issues with CPI are common knowledge and generally acknowledged by both sides. You have been involved in numerous conversations with me regarding inflation and certainly didn't think "they faked 10 years of data to make Biden look bad" when I defended Biden on inflation. Two, the quote that you took completely out of context was from our (and iirc slapper's) conversation regarding grocery inflation. In that conversation, you were able to demonstrate "normal" grocery inflation in your area, which I acknowledged. Which leaves us with reality that some people, like Old Slapper & I, watched our grocery bills painfully double, but that experience wasn't necessarily universal. Now, you've chosen to take a tiny snippet of that conversation to completely mischaracterize me and my position and indulge in your delusions and illusions of grandeur. Great job. [/QUOTE]
