Newsweek’s Daniel Gross explains the Consumer Price Index (here’s the official BLS site) in a very simple video. I could do without the goofy sound effects, but it’s a good, 2 minute explanation of how the government tracks inflation.
Per David Simon’s Berkeley talk, though, the video doesn’t go into why this matters. Perhaps they’ll cover that in the next installment of the Economics 101 series.

I don’t want to take anything away from the fine game played by the Falcons defense yesterday. I think they’re responsible for at least one of the missed field goals and pretty much kept McNabb from getting enough time to get a deep throw off. But, come on…. folks are acting like DeAngelo Hall played this unbelievable game against Terrell Owens. I didn’t realize 112 yards, including a 23 yard completion was getting shut out.
