Eggs US – Price – Chart

I've been fiddling around with the Albertsons API for fun. It's kind of neat to see a whole year's worth of purchases in nicely formatted JSON.

I have half an idea to create something like a personal inflation tracker, but I'm still thinking about it.

It's entirely possible that these goons will start fiddling with official statistics around things like unemployment and inflation to tell us that inflation is not actually happening any more and that therefore we must cut interest rates, or some such.

Changing data doesn't seem like their style, I suspect the pattern for this administration (based on past history):

1. Simply drop the topic and ignore it / drop the topic (arresting Hillary, china tariffs, etc).

2. Declare the problem fixed and again ignore it.

3. Blame the boogieman of the moment.

And as usual just behave like children in order to fill the airways / distract.

Trump's last administration drew on a NOAA hurricane map with a sharpie to try to convince people he was not wrong about a hurricane path. Changing data is his style.

I honestly think that one was ignorance more than direct malice. I think he is in fact as ignorant / incurious as he seems.

Stop making excuses for an abuser who has repeatedly shown he isn't as stupid as he'd like you to think he is.

It's not "making excuses" I genuinely think what I said.

This kinda recrimination and such aren't helping anything.
