Why'd you leave out the last three months, sum?

I didn't, the media did. What makes this chart truly frightening is those numbers are diluted...fake...fairy dust.
It's actually higher

It's actually not, at all, but you've excused yourself from having to provide any evidence whatsoever so clearly that's all fine then.

What purpose is there to provide evidence if you'll just ignore it and change it to suit your definition?
Go look up your version of the evidence on CNN

well, for one thing, you'll be able to prove that you're telling even part of the truth correctly.

Keep in mind though, the method of calculating inflation has been changed...diluted
But the economy won't care, it'll still be felt

The classical way of quoting inflation is to compare CPI prices to what they were twelve months ago.

That doesn't work in this instance, because 12 months ago, we were going through a little thing called a pandemic.

That means ANYTHING that corrects for that will be called dilution by people like you, but TOUGH NOUGGIES. Of COURSE prices are higher than what they were during a global collapse of market demand. That's nothing to do with any economic management, that's just what happens when we all give up on pandemic control.

lol...

Lmao...I predicted you'd find a way to change definitions. You actually believe that? well good luck

Look it up for yourself! It's a fact!
