inflation

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Tulip,



When a country is experiencing higher inflation, the value of their currency is depreciating. If the official exchange rate isn't showing it, then there will be a black market to sell dollars or get more value from just using your dollars over the native currency. The problem is that the dollar isn't worth a whole heck of a lot either. They probably love Euros.
 
So by including headline components CPI is fixed?!? So you are saying we can just use Headline CPI and the problem is solved. You realize that most goverment COLA use headline CPI right? Perhaps I am missing something, but what happened to the conspiracy theory that the Feds are lying to us about inflation?



Again, I want to know what you think can be done to fix the reporting mechanisms for inflation? Why? Because I think it is broken too, however I just can't think of a solution.
