Do you have any credible source showing the BLS statistics are off? (shadowstats isn't credible, it is a for profit scam)



you easily dismiss shadowstats but fully trust the government.



Except I didn't do either of these. Be a bit more wrong k..

I asked for a credible source that offers different statistical results from the government. That obviously implies a lack of full trust. Although I don't see them profiting much from lying, since there's likely watchdogs who would catch them. They provide such an abundance of particular stats that finding inaccuracies would be easy.

For Shadowstats, I have checked out their site and the creator. It is ran by a person lacking credibility, charges a high monthly price, and caters towards an extremist audience.

you keep citing government info, that to pretty much anyone would imply you trust them.
you said a group isn't credible, that to pretty much anyone would imply you do not trust them.

AND, the kicker, you bring up money.



carry on levgre...you're a funny tool!
