Our Comment: Aren't these CPI reports hillarious! What a joke! Government manipulation of real life inflation meant to dupe the American people with an even further scam of CPI-W meant to screw Social Security, Veterans and Federal Pensioner's on annual COLA's. But they love corporations of oil and gas and Healthcare getting wealthier while bankrupting Americans. What a sham by Republican and Democrats alike.
