Government stats on anything are no longer credible. The price of food is increasing at an extreme rate and the government constantly adjusting what food products they do and don' t count to manipulate numbers does not change what everyone knows.
The value of the dollar is devaluating in almost every regards. Inflation is the result of runaway debt and the only way to divide up a shrinking per-capita pie plus to reduce the debt. Double inflation would reduce the effective debt by 50%.
This also is how the government is dealing with runaway "entitlements" and social programs. They cut payments and benefits merely by not raising it via inflation. The USA is in economic decline and the rate of decline is most found in the growing national debt - which is a major factor in defining the inflation rate.
