And you seem to forget that the government deliberately inflated the currency in order to pay off the war bonds and all the alphabet agencies created by FDR. The real measure of course is the number of hours/minutes you have to work to buy something after taxes.

Of course, governments create inflation. I can't imagine why you'd feel it necessary to tell me that. I am FreeRepublic's premier inflation-fighter. The fact remains, though, that the Post Office [which, let's remember, doesn't get a dime of tax money] still has to raise prices to match the inflation the government has created.
