The inflation we are experienceing now is represented, but not properly measured by CPI (underweighted), in grocery store and garment prices.

Go to Kroger and check out my thesis

Are you really sure those retail prices are increasing? Discount stores are practically giving away some high quality goods...clothes, food, house and people "stuff", etc...

It seems that a lot of foreign goods are keeping those prices down, and low-price options on the big things...cars, appliances, technology, keep people in the spending game.

I read those charts and see a high correlation between inflation and interest rates...maybe those interest rates will go up for us savers soon?

Funny how those charts don't support his thesis in any way, huh? But few will read this tendentious article, fewer still understand what was said, fewer yet will conclude that his argument is undermined by his own charts. LoL. But that won't stop the gold buggers from spouting reams of crap supporting the author.
