Why is this excluded? How long has it been excluded? What is inflation if it isn’t excluded?

Jobs were really strong under Trump and yet I don't recall inflation numbers like this

It is definitely the job numbers, though, and not at all the trillions of dollars we keep printing.

God, you're brain is warped bc of that dude.

No where in my post did I even mention trump.

Oh, nvm. Makes sense.

Btw, can any of you trump cocksuckers acknowledge that his bailing out (stimulus) is what lead to all this inflation starting?

There is no such thing as free money.

To keep the numbers down. They exclude two of the biggest expenses the average American face and can't live without. It doesn't make sense.

Hey, we don't need food. It's not that important.

Why some indices don’t include food and energy

In case any of y’all wanted to read about why

I would love for some of you trump supporters to debate me on this.

Anything that dude says, y'all gobble up like y'all do his balls.

The early 80s were bad, but the food inflation currently is incredible

All government created. Now the government wants more entrenchment in the economy, which will lead to more volatility.

They're still kicking the can down the road.

No. I just see the same talking points being spread you are making that it's all because jobs are really strong. That is more BS and you are repeating it. Stop making excuses for the failure in charge.

This is what I said...

Well, the job market is really strong right now. That's part of the reason inflation won't drop.
and you came back with a defense on Trump.

My post wasn't related to anything trump.

Like I said, your brain is warped.

Oh, here come the elementary TDS insults.

Y'all are too predictable.

Don't understand the world we live in except thought the eyes of what y'all are told by Donald.

Right. Go buy some meat, eggs, and milk and tell me you aren't paying 1.5 times what it used to cost.

Again, I'm willing to debate anyone on this economy issue.

I won't hurl childish insults either.

OK

Jobs were strong under Obama towards the end, even though it was the slowest recovery ever, yet inflation wasn't out of control like it is now.

Is that better for you?

It wasn't a Trump excuse but a comparison to show how damn stupid your talking point of this being about jobs is.
