    Guy who doesn’t understand the CPI.

    Like you do know they typically report consumer inflation based on “a basket of standard household goods”, right? No one uses yacht sales to measure inflation. You can even see what goods they use for the CPI in case you’re worried I’m a secret billionaire trying to get you to ignore my yacht deflation. https://www.bankofcanada.ca/rates/price-indexes/cpi/ https://www.statcan.gc.ca/en/statistical-programs/document/2301_D68_V1

    Be mad about everything being expensive but don’t be ignorant. And you’re so confident in your ignorance, too, “I’m amazed at how stupid our society is”. Like damn, this shit’s free to search for online, at least make sure you’re right first.
