I remember in High School I'd play hookey, go to the local burger king, buy a whopper with a coupon for $1, get a cup for "water" and then jump on the bus for less than 2 bucks round trip and see a movie for 5 bucks.

I don't think we've had a deflationary even in this country in about 150 years.

When I was flat broke I used to buy organ meats from the butcher for $0.50 a lb or a carton of eggs for about the same. Couple that with some rice and some kind of spices/sauce and I was fine. Food costs could be down to ~$5 per week. This was in 2010. The same strategy today would likely be at least $40.

Importing millions of retards is keeping inflation up since we need more cash to keep up with population growth in theory. Allowing Declining birth rates and going below population replacement would essentially cause deflation and fix most economic issues ie. Crashing the stock market because its pretty much fake and gay at this point. But shoving money into a dying a necrotic limb is better than cutting it off to save the body to economists or something like that. Tl;dr the jews keep inflation

@Terry I remember in High School taking the bus to school, spending the morning with friends, not going to a single boring class, walking home, reading books, masturbating, and then walking to the nearby graveyard with a lunch and watching the cars drive to and from the Caribou Ferry while eating my Dagwood and drinking a 2L of golden ginger ale. Those were good Mondays. Praise "Bob".

@SwordFighterSuper @All_bonesJones @Terry so that's what.... about $7 today assuming the fake and gay metric which doesn't take into account the exponential increases in other areas which make the cost of living go up and up and up

@SwordFighterSuper @All_bonesJones @Terry what's even more insane to me is that gen-X keeps up the boomer narrative of how much harder it was for them in the 80s when they paid for a truck for $50 bucks and had to put in about $100 bucks into it over a yearwhen they were 19-20 so that they could laboriously work 40 hour days at a hardware store during the summer to pay for two semesters of college. As if today any of that is even remotely possible lol.

@FailurePersonified @All_bonesJones @Terry Don't worry, both Millennials and Zoomers will some day be as out of touch as the previous generations.
