In this deep (and skeptical) dive into the latest CPI numbers, Chris breaks down why 2.7% inflation doesn’t match the reality Americans live every day. From manipulated BLS data and stagnant wages to the soaring cost of life’s bare necessities—food, insurance, housing, and energy—this episode challenges the conventional wisdom that 2% inflation is “success.” Why should the dollar lose value at all? Drawing on decades of experience and the economic views of Judy Shelton, Chris explains why zero inflation should be the goal, why debt and money printing are crushing future generations, and why Washington keeps kicking the can down the road.
