As of September 2024, the inflation rate in the U.S. was 2.4%, supposedly the lowest rate since February 2021.
In theory, it appears to have decreased, but in reality, it hasn’t. Prices have skyrocketed, while wages have barely moved.
This is because the numbers they’re using are manipulated. They use the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to measure inflation, but the CPI is literally a number they create.
