Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) calculated using the 1980 methodology by Shadowstats:
Using the 1980 methodology, CPI is still about 12.5% YoY compared to the 4.9% reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
For background, the methodology used to calculate CPI has changed several times since 1980 in order to show a lower CPI number.
