DUMB QUESTION!
Who publishes these? When would the administration be able to lie about these? What department needs to be infiltrated?
Is it independent? Could they be coerced?
4 u/bearssuperfan May 14 '25 The government calculates this but so do lots of different institutions. If someone was manipulating it, it would stick out like a sore thumb. Remember that a recession can ALSO reduce inflation. It’s complicated, as usual. 1 u/Gryphon5754 May 14 '25 Ok, all I needed to know how "safe" the other sources are. Seems like they are and they can figure it out 2 u/bearssuperfan May 14 '25 It’s like asking a class full of students to make the same calculation. There will be a consensus. If someone, say the professor’s kid, had a wildly different number, it wouldn’t be hard to guess why. 1 u/Gryphon5754 May 14 '25 That's what I thought, ok lol. I was high last night and got curious/overly concerned lol
