40 years? The part I posted is showing about 10 years. Where the last three have far far exceeded normal target inflation. Sure, it could be worse. But this is still shit.

I was going off of the info at the top of the graph: "Aug 2023: 306.269 | Index 1982-1984=100" So yeah, ~3% for 40 years is about right. Last three years are way higher though, so the average is not a good indicator of recent inflation. Last 3 years is probably around 6% per year, which is pretty bad.
