John Williams doesn't actually publish his formula as far as I know, but he says he applies the "old method" to the same data, as if I should care. All this shows is that inflation measurement was WAY shittier back then.
I mean look at this crap:

Notice that it's the same line, just shifted UP. Both lines show relative stability in the last few years. Neither shows a rate of increase since 2001. I point this out because the rate of increase needs to rise for mass inflation or hyperinflation.
But look at the numbers themsleves. if inflation were really 10%, then GDP would be like negative 9% growth right now, and that would mean the uS has been in a recession for the last few years. A major recession. This obviously isn't true. Corporate profits and tax receipts have been strong. This would not happen in a high inflation environment.
I mean you better have a pretty fucking MAGICAL formula if you take the same BLS data and somehow get a SEVERE RECESSION in a five-year period where you have high corporate profits. Good luck.
You're all retards.
