Are you referring to the BLS, CIA, FBI, DOD, VA, FDA et al?

It's interesting how you imply that lies can't possibly exist.

It's interesting how you don't deal with actual food budgets and how much bigger they are than 1 or 2 years ago.

It's interesting how you apparently ignore that there are lags between rises in the underlying commodities and price hikes at retail.

It's interesting how you ignore the actual evidence in the CRB and CCI and their sub indexes.

It's interesting how you assert that if inflation drops a point or two or whatever in the near future that it will prove that inflation doesn't exist.

It's interesting how you apparently refuse to look at factual data like at shadowstats.com, where basically all John Williams is doing is calculating the CPI the same way it was calculated in 1982 and prior.

Jim Puplava has said something to the effect that 2008 will be the year when the deflationists will be buried. Let's see what happens!
