How in the heck can Bernanke and the Feds justify excluding energy and food when calculating core inflation! Let's see... I have to feed my family, and I have to drive to work, heat my house, etc. However, as gas approaches $4.00/gallon, the cost of wheat has tripled over the past 10 months, eggs are up 25%, milk 17% and so on, Bernanke will continue to depreciate my wages by lowering interest rates and devaluing the dollar (in order to bail out Wall Street investment firms) because core inflation does not include these statistics and thereby provides the Fed with justification for them to do so. I guess I should just be happy that I can still buy that DVD player at Walmart for $79!
