>Only 9% inflation bros...
>>50390811Yeah, well, thank god it's only transitory.
someone should draw a dick on that piece of paper
>>50390874yeah, transitioning from a functioning economy to a Weimar economy
>>50390874>>50390889>>50390893Has anyone actually ever went into the details of how they measure CPI? I mean line by line, every single product and the algorithm used, the hedonics used, the location of the products, etc.Housing up yoy around 20%Gas in my state is up about 80%Food at my local Giant Eagle or Wal-Mart is all up 20%, 50%, 100%, some shit is even up 200%.Used cars were up about 40% in my area. I was able to sell my Chrysler that was only worth about $8k 1 year ago, for $12k this year.It's such a fucking fraud. Idk how ANYBODY even pretends to believe it.
>>50390997no one cares. if you cant afford things then work harder, its simple.
>>503909971/3 of the CPI is housing. But they don't use actual market prices or rents. They give non landlord boomers a survey and ask them to guess what they would charge if they rented their property. That figure is only up like 5% even though real rents are up 25-40%. The food portion is dynamic. If steak cost $8/lb last year and is $16/lb now, they just say that people will eat chicken instead ($5/lb -> $10/lb). Under this model, the cost of meat went from $8 to $10, only a 25% rise!
>>50391064You need to be 18 to post here
>>50391190Big if true
>>50391190Ya I know, but I'm wondering if there is an actual line by line list of every single thing they measure and how they measure it. Or, is it just an amalgamation of different reports from each federal reserve across the country.Like, not just; Item: Milk, Price: $2.48 Gal.But; Item: Whole Milk, Brand: Great Value, Buisness: Walmart, Location: ABC Town USA, Adjustment: -24 cents, Reason: Higher Vitamin D content, Price: $2.48 Gal.I know it's autistic as hell, but I have a suspicion they just make a lot of shit up and rush through it.
>>50391253That’s what happens when you have no-one with actual economic or mathematical intelligence running the fed. JPow himself never studied economics, had a bachelors in political science
>>50391190This is true. Look into the boskin commission for more info anons.If we measured cpi as they did in the 70's. The cpi would be well over 15%.
the answer is clearly to cook at home
>>50391530/thread
>>50391190the CPI doesnt include housingthe CPI and housing prices have decoupled about 40%, not that it really matter as you point out the CPI is entirely fudged anywayhousing is gonna crash hard to realign with real prices of other goods. so either housing will come down or bread and milk will be $15 bucks each
>>50391517you can think obama and the big econ brains for that. a move from the official poverty measure to a subjective poverty measure (because if you dont have a phone you are in poverty according to the gov)
>>50391190The owners equivalent rent is particularly shady because it is not a measurable number. It is a survey given to home owners. That data is essentially meaningless. (And constitutes 1/3 of cpi) A home owner would clearly not be familiar with the renting market. Therefore how could they answer the question what would the rent for your house be if you did not own it. The blind leading the blind. Fuck economists and fuck jannies.
>The food portion is dynamic. If steak cost $8/lb last year and is $16/lb now, they just say that people will eat chicken instead ($5/lb -> $10/lb). Under this model, the cost of meat went from $8 to $10, only a 25% rise!And if chicken goes up to $20 they will just say that people eat ze bugs instead… hehe…

>>50391253Here ya go anon, enjoy. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/cpi.t07.htm
>>50391806Thanks, but I've seen that. My point is, they are just generalizing groups of products instead of actually pointing out specific items, where those items were measured, what adjustments and the reasoning for those adjustments. Also, LMFAO at these footnotes.
>>50391806thanks>>50391912yeah I'm sure they have some autistic reasoning for it but they won't share it because then you could find fault in it.
>>50391756>PLACE YOURSELF IN SOCIAL SETTINGS!!!!1!Nah I’ll pay the doordash premium to avoid that I’m a bobo hoarding cash anyways
>>50390811How much are tickets to the Goonlord show?
>>50390811I get it now. It's so simple. I can't believe I didn't see it before. But now my eyes are open. There really is no defeating inflation. Inflation is actually impossible to overcome. It's the reason why everyone is poor, and will continue to become poorer over time.You make 5% more this year? Well fuck you, because businesses increase their prices 6% to stay ahead.Economy in a recession? Well fuck you, they still raise their prices, because nobody is spending, and they have to keep their profit margins up.There is no action that will not result in businesses increasing their prices. They will always increase it disproportionately to the average income. And nothing will stop them from doing that. The whole system is spiraling out of control.
>>50393119Get a raise that outpaces real inflation, get a second job to bring in more money, demand the government reduce taxes, rather than tax you and selectively hand it out to other people.Or just get used to having less.
What's funny is normies think this will all be over in a few months or a year or something lmao.

>>50390997>>50391190Just wait until anons look into labor force participation among under 30s (even with higher education factored) and the low unemploynent rate, to say nothing of under employment which never recovered post 2007. Obama did it, Trump did it, and now Biden does it. Throw big numbers to make people happy while they work 80hrs for the bare minimum.
>>50390811This is your economy on liberalism.
>>50391562My parents haven't rented since the 90s and were paying $600/month for a decent 2 bedroom apartment with a garage where you could walk to the beach in San Diego. Adjusted for inflation that would be $1200 today using the CPI rates. Lmaooooooooooooo they think my $1000 rent in flyover land is bad. These are moderately educated home owning boomers.
>>50395047What does this even mean.Trump did nothing but be a boomer.Obama and Biden do/did everything they possibly can to stick it to people in every way possible.
>>50395150>be Obama>give billions to auto manufacturers to "stop people from losing their jobs">people lose jobs and execs pocket bonuses>give trillions for banks too big to fail>they fail or merge, thousands lose jobs and execs pocket bonuses>labor force participation never recovers from pre-2007 levelsEvery president from around the 70s onward has down some amount of fuckery like this. Admittedly I'm sleep deprived and misread ypur post but refuse to edit. Trump did the same using>muh GDP>muh joblessness decrease>muh S&Pas indicators of a healthy economy while people were still waiting for any amount of relief or federal revitalization of their local economies. The tax cut was nice but he also bailed out industries and that was pre-covid. Covid almost had no impact in the sense that we've lived in a "golden bullrun" for almost 20 years which doesn't happen naturally without everyone's ship being lifted.
>>50390811>chicken wingsarent most of those from the USA? Why would the price skyrocket that much? Seems like bullshit to justify charging customers more to me.

>>50394984Yet you can't buy a tv from the start of the hedonic reduction, you have to opt into the new shit even if you don't want to.
>>50390997in america they report on inflation with the CPI (consumer price index) which is a basket of goods. they rebalance the basket by claiming that people tend to drive less for leisure, or substitute prime rib for chicken, or some other bullshit. this allows them to swap out more expensive products for cheaper products and manipulate the CPI basket downward.but even the prices of individual products are manipulated. they perform quality or hedonic adjustments for proclaimed improvements of quality. a good example is cars. cars are getting more and more expensive but they adjust the price downward because a car from today has, for example, a touch screen infotainment system and an 8 speed automatic transmission. a car from yesterday might have a dumb radio and a 5 speed automatic transmission. they claim that the newer version of the car is a massive quality improvement, and so they can rightfully adjust the price downward to make it comparable on a $ to $ basis to the old car. in reality this is ridiculous. see pic related. the only measure of inflation that matters to the consumer is how much they pay at the cash register/sales counter for identical goods.this sounds like schizophrenia but it's true. the BLS (bureau of labor statistics) talks about quality and hedonic adjustments on their own website. and they also talk about product substitutions within the basket. this is how you reconcile a 10% reported food inflation for april 2021 to april 2022 with witnessing firsthand, with proof of store receipts, the price of food going up 50% minimum in the same period of time.

>>50395771>the only measure of inflation that matters to the consumer is how much they pay at the cash register/sales counter for identical goodsNothing is identical.Even an apple from 50 years ago isn´t the same. It´s hard to actually measure inflation as prices, products and people change with time.How can you argue that implementing all kinds of safety measures in cars shouldn´t make them more expensive ?Measuring inflation is really difficult especially in times like these where consoomer behavior is changing dramatically
>>50390997why the fuck do you think onlyfans weed and drugs are so popular? People are dumbing themselves because it’s better than roping. This is by design and many anons wrote about this years ago. Life sucks so get high watch porn and let them rape you. I’m worried that if things don’t get under control their will be a civil war
>>50396345most of their adjustments are disingenuous. the only adjustments they should be making are useful lifespan adjustments for durable goods provided that they truly last longer. hedonic adjustments for technology improvements are meaningless scam when useful lifespan of tech products do not increase and in probability decrease (planned obsolescence or perpetual licensing scams crippling its functionality.)at the end of the day all that matters is what you pay at the cash register for identical goods. going back to that guy's post, cars are a good example of this. durability and safety of vehicles improved massively between 1990 and 2010 or so -- and then flatlined. since then prices have been going up while the CPI jews make downward adjustment copes for nonsense reasons. oy vey the 2020 model has a 10 speed transmission while the 2007 model only had a 5 speed, this is a massive improvement? and did you see, goy, the 2020 model has a bluetooth infotainment system and an HD backup camera! that alone lets me adjust the price downward by 5%!even if i believed these nonsense adjustments were valid justification, because i'm presumably getting "more" car every year (i'm not), it still doesn't address the fact that an entry level economy car 10 years ago was $18k and today it's $25k. what you pay at the sales counter is all that matters -- unless you can argue that you now buy the product less often due to lifespan improvements of durable goods.

>>50397012You killed Hitler for this.
This is now how inflation works. If prices of items goes up then businesses should substitute with viable alternatives.Fryer oil too expensive? Okay, use a different kind of oil or some other cooking liquid.Chicken wings too expensive? Fine. Change the menu and include other items or cheaper cuts of meat.Take out boxes too expensive? Sure, switch to cheaper styrofoam boxes.I am tired of businesses trying to gouge customers because they are too stupid to learn how to keep their costs down. Adapt to the economy or die. I hope this local restaurant goes out of business.
>>50398322this sounds fake and a total larp.
>>50398342They already use the cheapest fryer oil. Wings are the cheapest cut of chicken. You are gay and your post was bait.

He didn’t need to invade Russia. He didn’t need to bomb London. He should’ve contented himself with France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Poland and been done with it. Much could’ve been accomplished with that bloc of countries including fascist Spain and Italy. Hitler got greedy and poked the Russian bear and paid for it with his life and the lives of 10s of millions of German volk.
>>50390811Beer is still the same price. Wonder why?
>>50395451Bird flu. It didn’t make big headlines outside of home and garden publications, but about 6 months ago we started seeing it in the US again. They raise these birds in massive flocks and one flu case triggers a cull. They killed millions of birds in the last few months and disposed of the bodies. At least that’s the official story. There have been all sorts of fires, explosions, weird poising events in agriculture and food distro over the last year or so. Seems more like a pattern of industrial sabotage at this point, I suspect it has something to do with these ESG ratings like what happened in Sri Lanka and the Netherlands.

>>50398898Yes Russia was industrializing fast and had aggressive future ambitions towards Germany, but that doesn't change the fact that opening a new front with them before finishing off Britain first was a huge strategic failure. The delay wouldn't have been that long.The oil you talk about wouldn't have been so necessary for the Germans without that second front against Russia anyway. Germany would have been better off finishing their nuclear bomb research (they were pretty close to it) and fucking Russia with that.

>>50394668degrees teach you the formalities of how to write scientific papers, that's about it.you're supposed to learn how to research stuff yourself and write a conclusive paper on it to present to your superiors. what you really studied is just an extra on how you should think about solving problems. if you studied anything stem you're expected to be extremely precise and analytical. If you studied soft sciences you're expected to not interpret everything too strongly and have a rather open interpretation on the conclusion.Depending on the task they will hire you on how you are preprogrammed to solve problems. Either vague meta/macro or detailed micro approach.Of course there are people out there who will be better than people will degrees, but employers want a common denominator and societal proof that they are trustable and they aren't wasting their time.but ultimately it's just a formality shitshow to split society.

It all went to major corporations that are physically unable to spend that much money on any of their projects.50-150% price inflation occurred globally within two weeks of a coordinated media campaign that occurred on the same day across all media channels, advertising "hyperinflation" with zero previous mention or suggestion before that exact hour that ever media company aired the story.I'm going to need you to figure it out.
>>50395435But Trump just did it for his massive ego and his overall boomerism.My point is that the others actually have it in for you.I much prefer a blowhard egomaniac populist to a group of pedophilic psychos that literally want me to die the worst way possible.
>>50399148>as the cheap money ends, being overpriced ends with itNope. Prices will stay up, because there will still be buyers. Sorry you didn't take advantage of the cheap money and got left behind. The home owner class is shifting to wealthy boomers, house flippers, and corporations like Blackrock. You're not in the club, and the market doesn't need you.

>>50396805Why contain it?
>>50396345Without central bank manipulation, goods should get cheaper. Technology or logistical improvements make it cheaper to produce the same good as the years pass. Having prices rise and revising quality downward can't be called anything else but theivery.
>>50399203>a coordinated media campaign that occurred on the same day across all media channels, advertising "hyperinflationSource? I'm not in Muttland so maybe that's why I haven't heard of this, I though the idea we were experiencing 10%+ let alone hyperinflation was still a massive taboo, who is calling it hyperinflation in the MSM already?
>>50390811Checked and not my problem.
>>50390811This is the fate of any western allied country that's not the US. Welcome to the death of the USD as we know it.
>>50394136You can't gain muscle and lose weight at the same time. What you do is build muscle and eat like crazy for about 3 months, then switch to clean eating for another 3. Muscle take 3x more calories to maintain, so the extra weight from the bulk will come off quickly.Do the bulk and cut for a couple years then settle into maintenance routine and diet. You'll be a beast.
>>50400254>You can't gain muscle and lose weight at the same timeYes you can, you fucking retarded nigger. Losing fat and gaining muscle at the same time is possible.
>>50390811Sounds like a boomer problem. Why don't they just work harder?
>>50399022Why don't you just say it without the ghey breadcrumbs? This isn't a marketing class it's fucking 4chan. That being said, LARP away, anon.
Why is eth up so much these past couple days? Is it a sign the bottom is in?
>>50400267Go for it then, /fit/izen! Magically cut while gaining! All the best bodybuilders and athletes in the world can't do it, but I'm sure you will!Do you even lift?
>>50398923Are you really going to compare entry level housing -- which is essentially a commodity -- to a super-luxury good? Housing is only worth what a marginal buyer is willing to pay for it, and marginal buyers can buy A LOT LESS house at 5.5% than at 3%. Essentially, the Fed has drained significant exit liquidity from the housing market. Your zestimate may be X, but buyers will only pay Y.
>>50390811I buy all this stuff when I go grocery shopping. Cooking oil and chicken have gone up but they haven't tripled in price. Why such large price increases for restaurant supplies?
>>50399272LMAO you're assuming that all the boomer and TikTok investors/speculators that bought in the last year have diamond hands? At the first sign of a downturn they are going to rush to the exits to try to realize their equity gains.
>>50399203Fed money might not have reached consumer hands, but do you know what money did reach consumer hands -- treasury money. Stimmy checks and PPP helicopter money to upper-middle class boomers pumped up the real economy like heroin. That was the heroin high. Now is the heroin crash.
Are /biz/cels complete retards? It’s the CONSUMER PRICE INDEX, it’s INDEXED to…consumer prices. That’s the whole point, yes you can find individual items that are way more expensive that 9%, likewise you can find things that are cheaper in dollar terms. Oh my god, my index fund is only up 12% in the last year but I found this stock that’s up 40%, am I being scammed?!?!
>>50400352>be fat>bro just bulk to build musclekys you fucking moron
>>50400460Which individual item in the index is cheaper in dollars, please tell
>>50400352>Magically cut while gainingIf you're not an autistic min-maxing faggot on steroids that obsessively needs to gain every once of muscle that you possibly can, then yes you can cut while gaining. You might miss out on a small amount of gains but it's still very doable.
>>50394005>American EducationLmao lol

>>50402809>projectingcope/10
My country officially has the third highest inflation rate in the world right now (Officially only behind Turkey and Russia).Yet I barely see any higher prices when I buy groceries, clothes or electronics.People keep whining about inflation but I am legitimately unsure where this inflation is occurring. Maybe it's purely gas for heating, electricity and gasoline for the car causing the inflation figures?I have no idea but I will never believe government statistics again. This fake inflation is just meant to scare people so that politicians get elected again. I don't believe any of this shit.
>>50390811Don't care + didn't ask + ratio + you're poorReverse Uno matic general >>50404353

>>50400393>entry level housing Entry level shelter is a basic good. That's called a rented room or apartment. These are widely available everywhere. Single family detached houses are a luxury good, yes. The price alone should've clued you in.

>>50398982>The delay wouldn't have been that long.They had literally no way to invade Britain>nuclear bomb researchGermany's nuclear research was reactor based. They had no atomic weapons programme. You have no idea what you're on about and you're so confidently calling someone else an idiot.
>>50390811>2 more weeks!!!!!!Back the the containment area, thinly veiled troll
>>50390997Most comprehensive video of peter schiff on cpi.https://youtu.be/lSyYL-_RXHAMostly they say housing doesn't go up as much. They ask homeowners a survey to ask how much they would rent their house for. Then rig those numbers down. The housing category is like 30% of the CPI data. They don't account that if you get a mortgage right now it would be double the payment as before.
>>50390874Lmao'd
>>50393174>demand the government reduce taxes, rather than tax you and selectively hand it out to other people.People in Australia are VERY sensitive about this and will unironically freak out if you even suggest this.
>my employer raises prices on all products by 20%>I only get a 10% pay rise
>>50405680It’s almost like they have other costs other than payroll that they needed to cover.
>>50400352There is a difference between some random couch potato and bodybuilder who has been lifting for decades. Yes the fatty can lose fat and build muscle at the same time
>>50396805Its all but certain. 1776 worldwide niggers, get guns get good.
>>50400460See >>50400671 please, show us an item that has gotten cheaper without hedonics.
>>50394005You dumb fuck rofl
Was that food fucked up?
>>50397012dunno man, my wife works as a chef at a golf resort where the elite dine, she brought home some roast chicken from there, it was way better by far than any of the chicken we usually eat
>>50390811[citation needed]
9% inflation? Who cares about a little 8% CPI rise? The economy is doing well, this slight elevation in prices is actually a good thing, and besides just invest your money rather than keeping it in the bank and you can still get ahead. Yes, a little 7% easing is nothing to worry about.We can all deal with a 6% handle. Make different choices, shop at a cheaper retailer, like Wal-Mart or Costco instead of Whole Foods. Life is about making different and smarter choices. Consider getting a higher-paying job, this can give you a little motivation. Or maybe even a second job? Yes, put in a few more hours, and you can easily absorb a minor 5% price elevation. It's all about having a positive attitude. Try selling your car and taking the bus instead.
>>50409020How does getting a high paying job shield you from inflation?When the value of what you earn keep reducing if nothing is done by the government.
>>50390811The restaurants are bitching about higher costs of raw materials now.. pity.. the niggers who enforced vaccine passports will get no sympathy from me.I stopped eating at restaurants when they started enforcing impfpass.. didnt go back since then..I learnt cooking my own food.. yummy and delicious all with organic ingredients, without Sneed oil, full of lard and butter, without GMO wheat, at fraction of the costs at restaurants.Play stupid games you restaurantniggers, you will not get my money...
>>50390811It’s literally just boomers scamming boomers and blaming young people. Their greed has no limits.
>>50409715Anon offered the most logical option, all financial markets are crashing currently there's really no better option if one think about it.
>>50400267>>50406186how?
>>50410129By fucking shredding your body while working out.
>>50409859Except fags want to consider staying in USD which logically i think it's the dumbest thing ever to do considering how inflation is hitting the financial market.
>>50410356How is this even a logical option? Buying properties could be an option?
>>50410732Haven't you seen reports from China saying lots of chinese are defaulting on their mortgage? Doesn't that spell doom for the sector as a whole.
>>50410830Thinking logically anon there's really no way out of this inflation except the government sits up and drop policies that helps counter this.
>>50398645Don't forget energy. Roughly 60% of all the nitrogen (protein) in that chicken came from the Haber process. Natural gas is the primary input in the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen.
>>50410909You can't keep waiting on government to solve every fucking problem they created thats why we now have DeFi, this offers amazing opportunities to counter inflation,one of which is having access to multiple yield generators through spool while paying fees only when you are profitable.
>>50391530>>50398787I will forever extoll the virtues of learning to cook. I've been cooking since I was a kid, cooked for years in a non-professional capacity, tried various recipes.. my best dish is red sauce, something I have been making for over a decade. I recently cooked some red sauce and it's perfect. I no longer need to change it. I'm proud of it, but it took years of refining to get it where it is today.Cooking is my chosen art. I love it, and it loves me. I make better food than what you get at the majority of restaurants, so it takes a real nice place to get me excited to go.You can exercise the upmost control over what you eat when you cook for yourself, and feel good knowing that you've consumed something healthy and nutritious. You learn about the quality of ingredients and their nutritional/flavor profiles so you only allow the best to grace your body. Everything I make for myself is high quality in nutrition and flavor. I prepare these offerings for myself because I deserve a gift of health and flavor, a kindness to the body and soul.I don't understand how people can walk through life without knowing the joys of cooking. It is a beautiful art, and I must confess, even though I've been cooking for most of my life, it was only recently that I was able to begin cooking like *me*I imagine it's similar to any art. In music you play others songs until you can start playing like (You), just like in drawing you practice the style of others before you discover your own. I've practiced many recipes and there's still plenty more to learn, and each new recipe adds another tool to my belt.Thanks for >>50398787, there's plenty there I'd love to try. Here's a recipe from another biz anon for escarole and beans. I've never had it, but I've read some raving reviews after looking around online. Biz anons tend to have good taste so I'll definitely give it a go.
>>50391190Another trick they do is they say, wow a honda civic has 3xed in price since 1990. But honda civics are so much better because our technology is smarter. It's probably a 2x better product. So really it has only increased by 1/3.
>>50391530>>50398787>>50411264You know what? Allow me to add my own contribution. It's cheap and delicious, Italian soul food:4 TBS Butter1 Head of garlicmince the garlic, saute it on low in the butter. we're browning the garlicIn a separate container bowl (sealable), add 1 cup of cold press virgin olive oil, 1 TBS Basil, 1/2 TBS parsley, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2-1 tsp red pepper flakes, 1/2-1 tsp pepper.All herbs are better minced fresh, including fresh cracked pepper, but dried will do.After the garlic is browned, dump the butter/garlic mixture into your herb/olive oil and mix it up. Let the mixture sit overnight.After that, just boil some noodles in some salt water, add it to a bowl, add a few spoonfuls of the garlic/herb/oil mixture, mix it up, top with grated parmesan cheese.Viola. Extremely cheap, filling, relatively healthy.
Reminder that this happened in large part because these retards obliterated the economy over the flu and then printed a shitload of money, like the majority of the usd supply in history in a short period. Then they baited Ukraine into war with its regional power (1st and 4th biggest wheat exporters) for good measure. Now yurop is without energy and everyone is going to go hungry.

>>50415369The extra air helps cushion the chips, resulting in less breaking, along with the convenient benefit of making it look like a larger amount. Do note that chip bags will have the weight of the product, and mention that the product is sold by weight, not volume.

>>50396345Yeah apples aren’t the same anymore as they were. Actually no food is the same. All processed food contains corn syrup and this is pretty much 70% of food available at grocery stores. The real food that is left has declined in quality as it has less nutrients than it used to. Meat quality too is generally poorer as most would get it from a local farmer/butcher.
