Right. Which is another way of saying across the board "inflation". Inflation
of gas prices is something different; more specific. But again, that may be what you are retreating to, but it is not what you typed.
Moreover, you failed to comprehend / acknowledge (for the umpteenth time) that the price of gas between 2009 and today does not indicate what you think it does or support your contentions.

as far understanding that includes the prices of food increasing due to added shipping costs

Which is only part of increased costs in any given food commodity. There have been plenty of food commodities that have decreased in price while fuel prices have risen, which should be your first clue that the issue is not as simple as you would like to argue it.
Of course, you would know that if you bothered to look at the numbers.

wrong. the headline CPI does address this as I have repeatedly told you. there are line items for energy and food. my 7 year old son can read these, why can't you?

Is that so hard to understand?

You neither understand what you write nor the implications of the data you cite.
I think I understand completely why this is so, but I've exhausted myself trying to explain it you so I'll just leave you to your misunderstandings.
