Yes CPI is not an accurate or honest standard. Also measuring over a period that includes both inflation and deflation will tend to mitigate either/both. As Minsky says “the fundamental direction of capitalism is up” that would include prices as well. Not only do costs as a flow generally exceed individual incomes as a flow causing cost inflation, but human action seeing an increased flow of demand will inevitably result in demand push inflation. Integrating these particles of truth in Minsky, Social Credit and Austrian theoretics results in Wisdomics-Gracenomics whose new monetary paradigm of gifting enables price deflation to be successfully made a part of profit making economic systems and simultaneously breaks up the monopoly monetary paradigms of Debt, Loan and For Production only with which the business model of Finance dominates and manipulates every other business model and 90+% of the general populace.
