None of the government data is believable anymore. In the first place, in order for data to be believed you can not change the metrics of how it is calculated like what has happened with inflation numbers. The government likes to cover up bad data because they know just the numbers can bring on bad sentiment with the economy. But that short sided political advantage is more than offset by the long term damage that has now been done. The government has destroyed their reputation just like main stream legacy media has. Their data has become irrelevant to most people and for good reason.
Standard MO for a cult: All other sources of information are lying to you. The cult is the only valid source of truth.
In reality you have to look at what both sides are saying. If you look only at one side you're going to fall for whatever biases they have.
The people most certainly knew what was going on when they bought food, rent, and saw the price of new cars. Its not a cult to know government CPI is complete bull shit when inflation is claimed to be low while the price of milk has doubled in price. Its called pulling your head out of your ass and observing reality.
Indeed, it is the Harris side in their own cult pretending a good economy, trusting all government statistics, all the while knowing full well how their individual economic well being was been decimated.
