it looks far worse if you factor in 'real' inflation


if you want something simple that is closer to 'real' inflation #'s than the gubmint #'s  (still not accurate though) just follow the various raises in  pro sports salary caps  or elite position salaries.
those guys agents sure know what's up.  3% inflation my ass.
