It's hard to figure how the government determines inflation, with food prices seemingly going up in double digits and many metropolitan areas seeing hefty hikes in rent.

going to the BLS website might help. its an index of all consumer produdts, including things like electronics that tend to go down (esp when ajdusted for quality) as well as the things people tend to focus most on like rent, food, and fuel (of course we forget about fuel when its declining, as it has recently)
