Shadowstats is one of the dumbest websites on the internet. It doesn't remotely compare to the older formulas, it just applies a random consistent number to US stats and says "They're undercounting!". If they really "recalculated" it wouldn't be a mirror of the official numbers.
Think about it logically, per their dumb chart, inflation has averaged ~10% since 2000? and something like 7% in the 1990s? That easily gets you to over 1,000% total inflation in the past 30 years. Are you paying 10x for anything compared to the 1990s? TVs? Computers? Food? Gas? Furniture? Cars?
