I never claimed you couldn't buy the same tank of gas using MORE money.

You claimed "that any asset that is valued in Dollars suffers the same loss"

My share is valued in dollars and still buys the same tank of gas therefore, by your own example, suffered no loss.

If in your ABOVE EXAMPLE 1% inflation did not occur and instead the Inflation rate was 0% then would you be able to purchase more or less gas?

My share purchases exactly a tank of gas, no matter what the rate of inflation.

It does?

how convienent for you...

Could you list for us the Gas Stations currently accepting "shares" as legal tender?

"You claimed "that any asset that is valued in Dollars suffers the same loss"

Yes I Did. Each and every dollar suffers the same loss. So your asset valued in dollars suffers that same loss. Each and every dollar that investment is worth has the same 1% loss.

"My share purchases exactly a tank of gas, no matter what the rate of inflation."

What is your share valued at?
