The USA is a target market for large corporations looking to suck the blood and natural resources out of the land, water, and people. American has been Hoodwinked as John Perkins, former economic hitman from the 1970 and 1980's would say.
The process of hoodwinked is this:
A corporation wants to do business in a specific geographic market. The path of least resistance is to start illegal businesses, such as drug running, software piracy, sex trade, etc. But it has to be discrete, so they follow the laws at first.
If the law allows them to rape, pillage, and plunder, then they do. If the sovereign nation that is targeted refuses to allow market entry or doesn't agree to the terms the Corporation wants, then they hire "consultants" to persuade. Those consultants can be businessmen in suits from the local banks, or oilmen, construction companies, or management consultants.
If they are able to generate the profit and plunder as desired, they continue until they've robbed the victim blind. Literally leaving the soil parched, the water polluted, the gold and silver mines hollow, and the oil wells empty.
If the good people of the nation recognize what's happening and enough of them stand up, they can actually kick out the foreign devils. Unless of course the military, police, or some armed militia fails to stand up and protect itself.
The way they keep the game going, and how you know is to look around you. Is cheap money everywhere? Is everything getting more expensive? Are more people losing their jobs and livelihoods? Are more families losing their homes?
Who is hoodwinking the USA? Fed, BigOil & BigBanks, Congress, ThinkTanks and Foreign Entities.
Either way they suck the blood out of Mother Earth until enough of us die that population, money supply, and energy are under control again.
Alternate Inflation Charts
The CPI chart on the home page reflects our estimate of inflation for today as if it were calculated the same way it was in 1990. The CPI on the Alternate Data Series tab here reflects the CPI as if it were calculated using the methodologies in place in 1980. In general terms, methodological shifts in government reporting have depressed reported inflation, moving the concept of the CPI away from being a measure of the cost of living needed to maintain a constant standard of living.
CPI Year-to-Year Growth
The CPI-U (consumer price index) is the broadest measure of consumer price inflation for goods and services published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
While the headline number usually is the seasonally-adjusted month-to-month change, the formal CPI is reported on a not-seasonally-adjusted basis, with annual inflation measured in terms of year-to-year percent change in the price index.
In the charts to the right we show two SGS-Alternate CPI estimates: One based on the pre-1990 official methodology for computing the CPI-U, and the other based on the methodology which was employed prior to 1980.
Please note: Our Data Download is currently only providing the 1980-Based numbers, but 1990-Based numbers will be introduced shortly.
