Started under Reagan's installation in office, but in all reality it was HWBush and his CABAL that began altering all these statics to make Republican look far better than they were actually doing......He doctored how the Consumer Price Index was figured by changing all the metrics of how it had always been figured.....Same with measures of inflation, interest rates, and how un-employment was calculated.
