Nor do I trust government statistics, nor do I trust the Federal Reserve.
Inflation numbers are higher just ahead of the election. A breakdown of the stats shows higher energy prices and housing leading the charge. In my opinion, the energy prices are being rigged. The Federal Reserve uses this data as an excuse to raise interest rates. Interest rates impact mortgage rates, which raises inflation statistics yet again. in other words, a rigged market is raising the cost of living in order to ifluence how the public votes. It is a pattern. In 2008, the stock market crashed. Each time the left needs something, they get some kind of crisis.
I'm not buying any of it. According to the late Milton Friedman, inflation is caused by monetary policy. ALWAYS.
As a famous person once said: There are lies, damned lies, and statistics. This election season is loaded with them.
