Re: Doom
It was November. Six months ago. So we agree it was 10%. I had February in my brain for some reason and I was wrong. This isn't something we need to argue over. I recant. Let's talk about November. At that time, the Bureau of Labor Statistics calculated inflation at 3.1% using the modern method. To...

Re: Doom
Interesting, and very academic. On first glance I'm getting that there are many ways of looking at inflation and many components, and differences of opinion on how to conflate them. I can't disagree with that. Again, my original post on this was in direct response to poptart's post on a single one o...
