It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Now ask them to adjust for housing costs, which they more or less never do.
They almost never include necessities in these calculations. To them the real measure of economic activity is the price of 65" TVs dropping 10%, not rent going up 100% or housing prices going up 200-300%, or food prices going up 60%.
Hey, you can get a smart TV for 85% the adjusted price of one last year and wages have gone up .8% on average meaning you can open another tv! Why are you complaining?
Idk about you but new TVs is a primary monthly expense for me. I have like 6 in my bathroom alone.
I have 8 in the room I'm in right now.
I bought one of them from a store, the rest are second-hand, 2 are over 20 years old.
IDK why anyone would use a consumer good that people buy on average like once a decade. Might as well include mattress and car prices in there.

Gotta have Tucker Carlson shouting about communism at you from all angles, natural laxative
they would count house prices going up as sucess
Yeah, because they are housing prices going up as solidifying their position in the owning class
They definitely do! Rent went up? Oh, that means the GDP increased lol
to their mind rent going up is an increase in income not costs
