Of course, but there are lots of years where the inflation number was almost zero and even one year where it was negative. My allegation is that the basket is nonsense. For example, public college tuition (one of the major expenses for families) went up 250% net from 2000 to 2020 where as the CPI was up 50% net over the same time period. I think healthcare, housing, college, transportation, etc. aren't weighted into the CPI appropriately.
