By presenting inflation using the CPI, you can fool people much more easily and make them believe that inflation is low. This can be done, for example, by selecting the products in the shopping basket or their weighting. This way, you can lie to people and say that "everything isn't that bad after all."

Happy sunday ☺️

I don't think they have to do that

prices should be dropping 5%

they print 7% more money every year

so CPI is 2%
