It's an open secret that inflation is purposefully miscalculated.

As another commenter notes, CPI leaves out many of the most major expenses, e.g. housing.

There are estimates as high as 8% annually when you account for everything.

Is there a specific estimate/study that you'd wanna suggest to me? I've heard these claims but I've never taken the time to read the research myself, and I'm feeling like it now :-)

Thanks in advance.
