Inflation Hedge Question - is there a way to "go long" the CPI?

Quote from Random.Capital:
Don't see how your conclusion is consistent with the premise. If incomes aren't rising, a higher cost of housing is unsupportable regardless if it's a mortgage payment or rent.
look at third world countries and you'll see what I'm talking about, don't worry people will find ways to pay the higher rents, even if it means 3/4ths of their income after taxes
most people didn't pay their mortgages not because they couldn't cough it up, but because they weren't willing to pay interest on a loan greater than the value of the property
and if you still don't get it, 2 years from now you'll see for yourself
There is.

Too bad the CPI is always manipulated to the downside. Good luck with those TIPS on trying to hedge inflation - you've actually just locked in an approximate 3% per year loser.

Yeah, it's not like we should trust bloomberg or the bls. Let's trust someone's subjective opinion with no insitutional capacity to even remotely calculate core CPI correctly. Great, shows how informed anybody who reads that site is.
