>Between 2002 and 2026, the cost of living in the U.S. has increased such that $100 in 2002 is equivalent to approximately $185–$187 in 2026, reflecting a total inflation of about 85% and an average annual inflation rate of 2.59%–2.65%. This means the U.S. dollar has lost roughly 47% of its purchasing power over this 24-year period.

No, inflation stats are just artificially lowered by people accepting a lower quality of life and buying cheaper goods, altering the basket of goods used to calculate inflation.

For an accurate metric of inflation just measure changes in the money supply, which is the underlying mechanic behind inflation (currency debasement).

It is, but based on reality. What are the odds of someone keeping that receipt preserved in a bag, buying the exact same things, and them being labeled the same with the exact same product codes 20+ years apart? No odds, AI is dumb and only the dumb don't detect it. You have to realize the initial premise is off, then dig a bit deeper. Like these fucking flying car videos or robot boxing videos. People below boomer age actually believe that shit.

It's not a real photograph and even if it were that doesn't mean OP is the one who took it. But if you actually use your eyes you'd see the receipts say they're from Florida.
I haven't left my house in a while; today I bought a gallon of milk and it was like $4.29 which shocked me; I'm used to it being more like $3.50. The niggers at the store also had fliers out saying chimkin breast was $2/lb but it rang up as fucking $4.40/lb and their excuse was
>"Oh, the chicken on sale isn't THIS brand, but some other brand entirely... No we don't have any of that other brand in stock, at all, and the sales flier does say "frozen chicken breast" with no brand specified and the frozen chicken breast you paid for didn't have a pricetag listed ANYWHERE on it or in the store, but yeah, $4.40/lb is the correct price, actually."

I refunded it.

Gallon of Milk same. $4.59 not $5.99

Chicken Breast is $1.99 a pound, I just got some.

Coffee can be gotten for 7-8 bucks.

addendum: money is a force, an energy, a battery of potential, and energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form. That's just physics.
