So cotton prices have increased. Great. On a related note: "...apparel printed -0.3% (men's, women's, and infants' clothing fell but shoes gained)..." It doesn't matter how the number is calculated as long as it is comparable. The question is, is October's CPI numbers comparable to...

Right. I'll get on that...

October CPI: +0.2% October Core CPI: Unchanged (0.0%) http://imarketnews.com/?q=node/22571 "The core has its smallest over-the-year gain since this index was first reported, in 1957." "Food posted +0.1% as cereals, fruits, and nonalcoholic beverages fell but dairy and meats surged."...

Expect more and more of this to come in the future - government stealing from citizens in order to fund their inefficiency, waste, and needless spending of the past. From the article: George Papandreou, the Greek Prime Minister, said new European-wide taxes may now be needed to fund...
