Have your "making more money" people really kept up with that rate of inflation?

Yes dear. Your rise in prices is hypothedical. When you look at actual numbers then you are completely off base.

Go. Read. Learn. The "poor" are better off now then the "middle class" was.

Do you hear an echo? That is the biggest bunch of tripe I have ever read and your repeating it just made it riper tripe.

Not at all. That's the fact. A home purchased for around 40K in 1955 is now worth 600K or MORE! That may not be true everywhere in the country. But it is true in certain urban areas. I know of one that cost 35K in 1960, that probably could sell for a million, today. Same property. The home was improved with a new floor in the meanwhile. I was pointing you to the broader point, in a couple of cases, which you haven't addressed. You can say it's ridiculous. And I can say the same about what you've written as protest. But you should consider this, at the very least. It might be a point of view you've not seen.
