I'll tell you a secret, the cpi is a totally manipulated metric, they can give any value they want.

Here's the Canadian one, from a few months back.

And, it’s not an indication of inflation. It is the “manipulated” Consumer Price Index”. The trickle down effect of inflating the money supply on prices. Completely useless measure. Inflating the money supply in a debt based system is not M2, btw, but total debt: Federal, State and Local, Business and Consumer. Currently $80 trillion. 
This was a secret?
Even most NPC know that
Just have to "adjust" it in a month or two (and no one will be paying attention)...
