Why is the point so hard to understand? What is the problem here? Jeez I have repeated myself over and over and over. You can stretch a dollar in many ways, you have displayed plenty of them. At some point it doesn’t stretch anymore and that point varies with each family, with each old person, with each of us.
If inflation increases and wages do not keep up then those with less get screwed more. Why is that such a hard concept to fathom?
