<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SilverSurfer, post: 797803, member: 21603&quot;]Take a look at these charts. It&#039;s one thing to say prices didn&#039;t increase. Its another to look at charts and actually see the prices of things going up. If there was a price freeze, why did these prices increase?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/boredzo/3045823858/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/boredzo/3045823858/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/boredzo/3045823858/</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://inflationdata.com/Inflation/images/charts/Oil/Gasoline_inflation_chart.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://inflationdata.com/Inflation/images/charts/Oil/Gasoline_inflation_chart.htm" rel="nofollow">http://inflationdata.com/Inflation/images/charts/Oil/Gasoline_inflation_chart.htm</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeqrguz/housingbubble/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeqrguz/housingbubble/" rel="nofollow">http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeqrguz/housingbubble/</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1972] We find several articles about a scandal concering the McDonald&#039;s food prices and the Federal Price Commission, no simple hamburger prices quote in tje <i>New York Times</i>. Sample here: &quot;Quarter pounder priced at 55 cents.&quot; --&quot;McDonald&#039;s Told to Reduce Prices,&quot;<i> New York Times</i>, June 3, 1972 (p.21) [Foodtimeline.org]</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>But, when an employee went to ask the boss for a raise, because the price of everything was going up, he was told, &quot;Sorry, Nixon has a price freeze going on.&quot;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Beside, the information you posted is conflicting. If Nixon wanted to stop inflation, why would he go off the gold standard as a way to devalue the dollar bill? Sound like that would increase inflation, not stop it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
