Re: Oil adjusted for inflation

Have always wondered how oil can be adjusted for inflation, when we are constantly told by Alan Greenspan and the Bureau of Labor and Stats that there it's nearly non-existant!

Why, with the latest CPI and PPI numbers showing once again 0.01 and 0.02%, there has not been any inflation in health care premiums, real estate, college education, autos, food, oil, clothing.... etc..

So how can oil be adjusted for inflation if there is none, that is what we are not told by the above or the media, because of course if the true figures were reported, the $8 trillion national debt would soar far higher thanks to honest cost of living increases and more.
