<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1410652, member: 26302&quot;]I stated that every chart showing a simple compounding factor will appear as your graph appears. You said prove it, and I did. I asked you to map yoru chart to something other than something not reducing its power over time, and you ignore me, like I thought you would.</p><p><br /></p><p>I proved my assertion that any graph showing money over a long period of time will show that shape, the exact same shape many hucksters like to scare people with. I have not looked at the data, and accept its correct, the point all along was that that graph was erroneous built, like any graph charting static dollars over time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Either you don&#039;t get that, or you are ignoring the point. I honestly am not sure which is it.</p><p><br /></p><p>You asked me to do something and I did. Now, for the 3rd time, are you going to restate your graph in terms of &quot;real money&quot; and chart the debt versus gold? I would accept inflation adjusted dollars if you don&#039;t wish to malign your precious gold.</p><p><br /></p><p>Restated, the graph may show debt increasing. In that case the graph is actually telling us something. Short of that its simply a mathematical trick used all too frequently to scare the mathematically illiterate.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
