A growing number of products, from orange juice to toilet paper, are shrinking in size yet being kept at the same price, according to the latest investigation by Consumer Reports.
Happily, Americans are unlikely to notice the hidden 8% inflation (equivalent to paying the same for 59oz vs 64oz OJ), as we will be all too pleased when Angry Bird v5.0 is released. In even better news, this apparent theft will likely be excluded from the government's CPI inflation report... which will likely continue to show that, after excluding rocketing food prices, soaring fuel prices, and corporate theft of individuals (not to mention higher education and healthcare costs), prices paid by Americans likely remained, unsurprisingly, unchanged. Hurray!!
P.S. In real good news, corporate profits are soaring... hahahaa
