More changes to the CPI methodology...

Message 11256805

They must be really having trouble making it bake right. Almost every month, they announce new changes to lower the CPI. Eventually, the markets will ignore the reports. They will still get to screw everyone on SS, paying taxes, etc.

wayne, ho ho ho as hayek said the road to poverty is lined with paper wealth. Yes indeed, the support of the bubble is at the expense of the long term health of the nation. Tough love and economic violence seem inevitable. The dollar troubles against the yen may be a sign that the end of the bubble is in sight. Mike
