According to official data, the dollar has lost about 23 cents in purchasing power over the last four years. Absolutely no one believes this.
Huh? Loosing 1/4 since 2020? Why should no one believe this? A quater is a lot, it's very close to exactly the m2 money supply increase.
Looosing 1/4 is price increases of 1/3. A restaurant meme from $15 to $20. Sounds about right. Supermarket items that were $1 going to $1.30ish? Yeah, exactly.

Inflation is bad no matter what. Getting lost in the numbers of how much is a distraction. It's bad no matter which number.
