Why Everything Feels More Expensive Than Inflation Says It Should20 Jul20 min

Nick explains why he’s generally not worried about a U.S. sovereign debt default, arguing the national debt has been reduced in real terms through “financial repression,” where inflation runs above the government’s interest costs. He challenges headline and core CPI as understating true inflation—especially due to the use of owner’s equivalent rent for housing—and describes his alternative “Pardini CPI” built with the government’s weightings but private-sector data (e.g., apartment rent and Zillow home prices).
