REAL inflation to people when they go to the grocery stores and to the gas pump and when they pay their car insurance, is closer to 30% overall.
So, government figures do not see what people see out there every day.
How dare they point out that food, energy and housing isn’t included anymore in inflation figures, like anybody really needs housing, food and energy in the first place to live...

Top economists is an oxymoron.
I’m glad Jimmy Carter lived to see that he and Millard Fillmore were not the worst Presidents.
Exposing the WH clown show.
As if Obama is surprised. His dolts and minions have engineered this disaster.... but, yet the clowns turn to Obama as if he is the “go to guy” for all things America.
Government BUREAUCRATS do not see what people see out there every day.
They get annual pay raises, COLAS, many paid holidays and very generous sick leave and personal time off.
They live and work in a bubble called the Beltway.
Everything is wunnerful inside there. People are great! Life is spectacular! Money flows like water......................
Now why would they do that?
When looking at the chart, you see the divergence between truth and government lies peaked one year to the month before the election. What a coincidence!
The article doesn’t mention Obama other than “Top Economists Including Barack Obama’s Treasury Secretary.”
Nor does it say “surprised.” It just explains their findings.
Duh...!
What, did someone decide to go grocery shopping finally and see?
Exactly, anyone who claims that the “economy” is great, whiz bang and Sunny obviously does not do the grocery shopping.
I joined the Army in 1978 because under Carter there WERE NO JOBS, Inflation was even worse then than today, and if you could GET gasoline, you had to wait in long lines.
My folks had a mortgage and no $ for me to go to college, so I enlisted. I graduated early from HS. I was NOT going to work a ‘Mall Job’ for the rest of my life. I was 17 years old. Had my 18th B-day in Basic Training. The Army gave me a JOB and and INCOME and an EDUCATION. ;)
Best decision I ever made. A Carter is STILL the worst president of my lifetime - until all the TRUTH comes out on Brandon and his Socialist Democrat Cartel.
At least the country was not half illegals in those days! Jimmah did not hate America!
Larry Summers is truth telling again... that’s a big no-no for democrats...
Larry Summers was one of the first high profile economists to first to warn of the coming inflation with the huge stimulus programs.
You make some good choices... helps explain why you’re insightful.
