That's because they measure inflation with food and energy excluded from the equation because they are considered too ”volatile”. Anyone interested in truly measuring inflation's effects on the cost of living for real people would know that's wholly and completely buggered but these folks don't seem interested in a complete picture.

Ohhh, THEYRE interested in it, allrite, but they dont want YOU to see it.

yep; it would make it too plain as to how inept they have been at actually controlling the insane costs of the Fed. gov't.
Over spending by the fed, and the resulting borrowed money to pay for that over spending and associated interest costs, is the primary cause of inflation.

It would be inept if & ONly IF controlling the economy in such a manner as to offer the people a chance at a decent life & comfortable future. That, however, was never part of the plan. The very manner in which the Fed is designed makes it impossible for that to ever happen. Where we are in in a situation that was inevitable from the start, hastened by criminal elements using our military to accomplish the wants & needs of a global elite.
Honestly,, how have any of US benefited by these wars? YOu Havent? REally? Well,, Me NEETHEr Hoss! BUt Look at who HAS..

Survivalists suggest having food for a year.. I dont see that as possible for most fo9lks., but enough to stay alive a few months isnt too much for most ,, a 25 pound bag of beans isnt much, rice isnt too much, stuff for making cornbread,, ehh, not fancy, but itll keep the cobwebs off yer butthole,

Extra ignition mod=ule for the car/bike/generator.,.
Generator should run on propane,

Stash spare iggy parts in a safe place to keep an EMP from blowing them up. Shield anything you can, Look up Faraday cage

Water,, gotsta ta have Wattah!

Justin, you are mixing up on your doomsday scenarios a little bit.

And Verslagen is flippin' nukes at us now. (nukes, I don't worry about -- I live right next door to Fort Bragg and am well inside the primary blast radius)

This one is about severe inflation based on diluted money leading to a devaluation of the dollar internationally, with the dollar no longer being the international monetary exchange medium.

It is about $6-$10 a gallon gas and $4 loaves of loaf bread. And how are the baby boomers gonna do that on their SS checks?

Hey, bread is over a dollar a loaf already and gas is 1/3 of the way there and that is just in the last year.

Naaah, Im just a few months on down the road from you,,
You see, when the prices go too high & people cant afford what they need, the morons will try to cap prices, which will mean the producers wont make enough to produce & ship, shortages will follow, accompanied by riots & people going bonkers, taking what they need by force, martial law will follow that. If you can hole up in your house & survive a while,the competition for food & everything else will literally DIE down, Then those little pieces of gold & silver & lead mite just keep you alive,& out of a fema camp,.
