> Inflation is an average of many things

What other things have been getting cheaper in the last ~2 years?

And as it's an average of many things, it's quite easy to change which 'things' it is calculated upon to show whatever number is more convenient politically.

Turns out, BLS actually lists this stuff when they release CPI figures.

Used cars & trucks; butter; cheese; flour; chicken; textbooks; drugs are all down since ~2 years ago. Not an exhaustive list!
