<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1164926, member: 26030&quot;]I saw an interesting segment on CNBC a while ago.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This analyst was saying that all he ever hears is how gasoline is at record highs of over $4 a gallon.&nbsp;&nbsp; He then said that in reality gasoline has never been cheaper.&nbsp;&nbsp; Gasoline costs just 10 cents a gallon!&nbsp;&nbsp; The problem is you need a &quot;real&quot; dime from 1964 that&#039;s made of silver to buy it.</p><p><br /></p><p>In other words, you can buy a gallon of gasoline with that 1964 U.S. dime.</p><p><br /></p><p>He said it proves his point that nothing is very expensive now in reality, it&#039;s just the the U.S. Government has printed so much unbacked paper (fiat) currency, that the dollar has lost it&#039;s value -- so things sound expensive -- in reality it&#039;s the dollar that&#039;s become less and less valuable.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s a very interesting way to look at things.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
