Dear John,
You forgot one factor. The Current US Dollar is worth only about $0.15 to
$0.20 of the 1968 US Dollar, which was still on the Gold Standard. Then
President Nixon removed our Dollar from the Gold Standard, but still held
the price fixed at $35 per ounce until about 1974, when price fixing was
removed. Now Gold fluctuates between $250 and $400 per ounce, traded as a
mere COMMODITY. And our dollar isn't worth the paper on which it's printed.
Sounds like pre-Nazi Germany, eh, old friend?
What would happen if you factored that TINY matter into the actual value of
the Dollar and the shack it's supposed to buy, or the rattling tin can you
have to drive, or the house you're supposed to rent whilst its nouveau riche
cavort in Cadillacs and consume Caviar? Truly, it means our paychecks
aren't worth toilet paper.
heheheheh, I laugh at the feminazis here... You screwed yourselves out of
your mansions and into your poor farms...
"Give me your tired, your poor/Your huddled masses yearning to breathe
free..." Lady Liberty (and Emma Lazarus) really need to qualify that
statement, don't they?
Sincerely,
Richard C. August
