The current U.S. administration is built on lies. Can you manage an economy on lies? Warning, danger, Will Robinson, we could be in big trouble.

A group of Democratic senators is looking for answers from a government statistics agency after a hiring freeze forced cutbacks in the survey that determines the U.S. inflation rate.

The scale of the government’s price-gathering efforts has been cut back because a federal hiring freeze means inadequate staffing in some parts of the country, The Wall Street Journal reported last week. In April data published last month, the survey was forced to rely more heavily on a less precise estimation method than in the past.

It's exhausting how quickly this new administration is dismantling the government. There are people working to keep it intact but it is a slow process because they follow the system instead of stepping on the constitution.
