We all know that the officially reported inflation rate is much lower than the actual one. GDP should be adjusted for inflation, but it's using the official numbers, which are lower, and it looks like GDP has gone up.

Sorry, what?

Yes, but it's now clear that you do not in fact have better information. Glad we cleared that up.

And do you have "better" information? This is not my opinion - research to see that many economists are supporting my personal point as well!

Yes, and you also have it. Simply read the article. What you seem to have is gut feeling, at least until you give us better information, i.e. sources.
