If you've been paying attention, prices have increased on a lot of products recently.



A lot of products/ services have went way down as well

Televisions
Cameras
Cell phone plans
Airline tickets
Computers
Toys
Kids clothing
Appliances
Apples..... no kidding
Solar panels
Books
CD’s

Just to name a few.......

And many cars have went down in real cost compared to inflation as well. Camry, Corrola and Honda Odyessey to name a few




This is, in fact how the economy SHOULD operate. Over time, as costs go down, manufacturing techniques are developed to produce products cheaper a quicker come along, prices should go down. As you pointed out above, some have. And in fact, most likely should have come down more.


They don't because of the hidden tax of inflation. Prices don't really go up. What is happening, the value of the money you have is going down.


Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston
