I found this on a Dairy website--I say we are extremely fortunate that none of this is ever reflected in the CPI, even though I'm pretty sure we all have been feeling the effects, especially in the last few years. Its OK though--if the gov't had to deal with real facts, it would be the Fiscal Grand Canyon.
