[[remember, the higher rents go, the more people live in card board boxes. therefore, higher rents don't impact cpi.
or, alternatively, if your rent goes up it means you get more "value" from the same dwelling so it is an inflation wash.]]

Not to mention the increase in value for your card board box if it qualifies for a census long form. -g-
