>> Partial data, no real way to compare. And then...

You certainly cannot presume the missing data were vastly higher what was reported. It is suspect that housing would have been 0.1% points higher than what was reported but that was still lower than it has been running.

Now, it is true we don't really KNOW what the real numbers were due to the Democrats' outrageous shutdown. But there is no reason to presume a significant increase in the summary number overall.

One thing we do know with absolute certainty is that the real number would NOT have been anywhere closed to the Biden inflation mess, and neither would it have been outside the range of "normal" inflation.

Biden continues to hold the recent record for inflation and trouble for the poor in the United States because Biden's "presidency" was being run by partisan shills out of the Democrat party, illegally. And you endorsed it.

You actually preferred the autopen over the guy you voted for.
