Yet for some reason you want to tell me that I have only just learned that banking is a fraud, I'm an idiot, and that there is 'No inflation, nothing to see here because I am just great'. Talk about deflection and an inability to talk about inflation. You are a very rude man and I have no reason to converse with you. You should learn an honest trade and act with grace.
I'm not contorting or twisting anything. I'm simply asking you to square your belief that various economic numbers are being manipulated and altered with you claiming to agree with the beliefs of an economist who clearly accepts that these economic numbers are accurate. You can't make both claims at once.

And you can't come up with a coherent reply because it's impossible to do. You either believe that the numbers are bollocks or you don't. And because you can't come up with a reply you're resorting to Lyle-style word salad posts or claiming that I'm mean and unpleasant and an absolute rotter.

What I am is annoyed when people are wrong about things so I waste my time replying to them, even when they don't have a fucking clue what they're talking about.
