This is US CPI… I don’t know if this is what the Art degree monetarist morons mean by their figure of speech “inflation!” but maybe… I don’t understand a lot about how these peoples non technical brains work… Anyway if you look at this price index it hasn’t peaked as of the January report…This is in contrast to Bills report on Australia below… you can’t say the US CPI has peaked…It seemed to have peaked looking at the December report at 297 but now since January 1 we’ve had a significant...

Given yesterday’s extensive National Accounts analysis replaced my usual Wednesday blog post, I am using today to discuss a range of issues and provide a musical interlude into your lives for peace.
