The CPI market basket
The CPI market basket represents all the consumer goods and services purchased by urban households. Price data are collected for over 180 categories, which BLS has grouped into 8 major groups. These major groups, with examples of categories in each, are as follows:
• Food and beverages (ham, eggs, carbonated drinks, coffee, meals and snacks);
• Housing (rent of primary residence, fuel oil, bedroom furniture);
• Apparel (men’s shirts and sweaters, women’s dresses, jewelry);
• Transportation (new vehicles, gasoline, tires, airline fares);
• Medical care (prescription drugs and medical supplies, physicians’ services, eyeglasses and eye care, hospital services);
• Recreation (television sets, cable TV, pets and pet products, sports equipment, admissions);
• Education and communication (college tuition, postage, telephone services, computer software and accessories);
• Other goods and services (tobacco and smoking products, haircuts and other personal care services, funeral expenses).
The simple data link could have save your dumbass the pain.

apparently they never taught verb agreement in your southern schools.
a little more about why food and gas are not included in the inflation numbers.
http://useconomy.about.com/od/economicindicators/p/CPI.htm
[h=3]Core Consumer Price Index:[/h]Two measures of inflation are often reported:*core CPI, which does not include food and energy cost, and non-core CPI, which includes everything. Core CPI is important because this is what theFederal Reserve*looks at to decide whether or not to raise the*Fed funds rate.*The Fed uses the core CPI because food,*oil and gas prices*are so volatile and the Fed's tools are so slow-acting.*

all your crying won't change the fact that food and gas are volatile commodities which are not included in the inflation numbers that matter, kiddo.
if food and gas were included, inflation would be a measure of the weather and middle eastern shitholes.
now go review verb tense agreement, ya uneducated, three tooth having, sister fucking racist douchebag.

lol, conspiercy? i can just hear the uneducated southern douchebag leaping off the keyboard whenever you type.
food and gas are volatile goods. the price of food has more to do with the weather than anything else. you notice the huge drought across the nation and what that did to the price of beef?
that's why they don't count food and gas in the inflation number, you two bit moron.
