the answer lies in the price of houses and cars relative to annual income. If average income is 35K in your area, hoes should cost somewhere between 80K and 135K depending on which year you choose in the fifties. But they don&#039;t, they cost much more. The rest of the comparisons in this thread are productivity gains which do make some things less expensive, relatively speaking. but the big things like housing and cars are way out of line. As to Trump? Let&#039;s talk after he has devastated the global economy with his disastrous war and turned all of our allies into enemies. Then I&#039;m betting the price of eggs will seem insignificant compared to the social chaos that is likely to ensue]]></description>

Interesting economic observation. You are probably spot on. I think what hurts people today is the reduction of take home pay because of taxes. Maybe that’s why prices seem so high.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The basis of our economy is no longer silver or gold or the value we place on tangible objects. Our economy is based on the hours of our lives and the value we place on those minutes and hours. We still work 20 minutes for a gallon of fuel, a loaf of bread a candy bar for 8 minutes. We are now Wage slaves. As such we tend to depend on our employers to pay for our medical/health costs, our 401K and if we are blessed enough a decent pension. All of the benefits you are looking for from the Government are not in the control of the executive.  Look to your congress and senate. The prices we pay are solely due to corporate wim. Get real and stop buying from greedy corporations.]]></description>

oh, but Brandon&#039;s policies haven&#039;t helped us at all. If you really look at the FACTS, instead of wanting student loans paid off, free abortions or &quot;gender care&quot; for all, you will see it.]]></description>
