Why do you think it's a gamed number? The official US inflation numbers correspond pretty well to outside efforts to measure them like the Billion Prices Project. Not perfectly with any one official price index but the US publishes a ton of them using different baskets of goods and different methodologies so that isn't surprising. But not systematically off in any particular direction either.
