No, but I see it in my monthly bills so I continue to think that the Labor Department is screwing around with the numbers.

Conspiracy theory?

Flat inflation number might also indicate weak demand = lack of pricing power or massive oversupply of goods and services = weak pricing power.

That is what counts the most in the end. We can talk about monetarists, credit expansion or monetary aggregates and how we measure CPI all we want. Way too many reporting inflation is contained but I see otherwise in the real world.
