There is no way that matches reality, where does the person publishing such a chart even live? Do they buy eggs or pay rent?

Here is a real alternative - John William's shadow stats. He simply measures inflation as the government used to in the 80s and 70s, and surprise surprise its more like 10% or 14% - no phony "Owner's equivalent rent".
