It really isn't a joke. It tracks changes in cost of living pretty well.

The real mystery is why the fed is committing to supply side economics in a demand starved economy. That's the exact opposite of what you should do.

Does the Fed have anything it can do on the demand side? I'm pretty rusty on my macroeconomics, but I thought you needed fiscal policy to buy stuff if you want to juice demand.
