Otherwise known as inflation. Runaway inflation on the order of 100 percent per year since 2020. Basket of goods from Walmart that cost $122 in 2022 cost over $400 in 2024.

Best measure of real inflation I’ve seen so far. Perfect, actually. Random guy buys a month’s worth of the same groceries month after month through the pandemic.

He was curious on what that basket would cost in 2024, and it was over $400.

Madness.

Bingo.

As the Feds keep printing money to steal its value from others, property remains consistent in value which means its skyrocketing prices reflect the devaluation of fiat currencies such as the dollar.
