Build the capability quietly. Use it at a scale the public never approved. Account for it only once a court forces the paperwork into daylight.

The CPI is widely used as an economic indicator, as a deflator of other economic series, and as a means of adjusting dollar values, including for cost-of-living adjustments to Social Security payments and other federal programs.
This transcription covers the CPI's core methodology description. Full historical data series, category breakdowns, and regional indexes are available directly through the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
