Why are they lying about the rate of inflation? This claims its only been 31% since I started my job. I can tell just by going over my budget from that time that its not true. Ive gotten a 20% raise in that time span and even with major budget cuts I have less disposable income today. By my calculation its 51.3% inflation in the last 8 years. And I only think its getting worse as we get hit with a surge of foreign money in the upcoming year or two. We really are fucked bros

the government has to lie about inflation to slowly scam everyone with inflation-adjusted income like retirees and government employees. every year the COLA is kept very low based on fake inflation data.

it could be worse. at least you arent dependent on the government to tell you the truth!

Step it up. You can't control inflation but you can control this.
That doesn't even beat the long-term 3% historical inflation.
