I'm pretty sure the average Joe would agree with you about the CPI numbers being a complete farce. It used to not matter when it was low. But after covid, when people, largely following the same habits over time, see their grocery receipts go up 15% yet the government quotes 7%, they're not going to forget that for a long time.
