New Inflation Gauge Would Cut Benefits, Hike Taxes

quote:
"The inflation measure under consideration is called the Chained Consumer Price Index. On average, the measure shows a lower level of inflation than the more widely used Consumer Price Index.

The chained CPI assumes that as prices rise, consumers turn to lower-cost alternatives, reducing the amount of inflation they experience. For example, if the price of beef increases while the price of pork does not, people will buy more pork. Or, as opponents argue mockingly, if the price of home heating oil goes up, people will turn down their heat and wear more sweaters."

Didn't they already tweak the CPI to cut costs? The same can be said for NFP (tweak it to make it look better). "Here pick a card. Any card".

This is one of the problems with socialism. When the benefits promised by the government cannot be matched by the incoming revenues, the benefits will suffer.

Amen, it isn't that we suffer from a poor populace, although we do, it is that our leaders just don't lead. I could write several books about the problems, but when people get to Washington, they just don't make the correct choices. The Germans pass a balanced budget amendment to their constitution at the start of the Great Recession, we run up deficits at 6-8 times the rate of increase of the GDP...

Meh...
