Your buying PAPER that is set in value by the worst money managers in the world whom also set the value of that paper based on their reading of inflation which there is none just ask them for the last several years.
PS, just ordered 6 thermometers from my 3 year old Mcmaster Carr catalog that were listed for 13.15 apiece. The cost now is 17.75 apiece. Lets see an increase in price of 4.60 on a 13.15 dollar product over 3 years is an inflation of something like 10% for that product.
have you checked ammo prices over those same three years? $8.99 brick of .22's at walmart 3 years ago is now $18.99 or higher! |
