The minimum wage in 1963?$1.25 in silver quarters.0.9oz of silver, which is $95 an oz today.
So when someone bought a hot dog for a quarter 60 years ago that dog actually cost like $20?
>>526538347yesThat's how fucked everything is now.Food is cheap, everything else is expensive.
>>526538347hotdogs were like a nickel in the 1960's
At 40hrs a week, that would be $3400 a weekAt 50 weeks a year, $170,000 a year*Minimum* wageLet's Make America Great Again, by paying a minimum wage like America had when it was so great.

>>526538347>So when someone bought a hot dog for a quarter 60 years ago that dog actually cost like $20?Measuring that in dollars gets weird, so you measure it in silver then convert to dollars based on the year you are talking about. 60 cent 1962 hotdog - 13.5 grams of silver.60 cent, 13.5 gram, hotdog today? - 10.80$ if you paid in silver, 60 cents if you paid in fedbux. Inflation is evil.
Idk about that US stuff but I think we should be much more welcoming of immigrants here in Japan

>>526540146>20 dollar cup of milk pleaseSiler was less than a buck an ounce in '62, 20 cents was a fifth of an ounce, so 20$ today is about right.
>>526539938That menu is from 1972.According to Google:>picrel
>>526540146Your $20 Big Mac sir>it's actually big...I guess we all gotta forget about shrinkflation when the boomer copes
>>526539938It's interesting how cents were actually useful back then, now cents are like an annoying left over from the past
>>526540709>when the boomer copesThey can all shut the fuck up.
>>526540709dayum
>>526538347Kek don't ask these retards to explain themselves, they'll start kvetching and throw a fit.
>>526540830>now cents are like an annoying left over from the pastPre-1982 pennies have a melt value of 3 cents each.
>>526540453Thx for the correction anon>pre-vs-post Viewnam100% inflation due to a war that size sounds about right
>>526540453Now verify that what the LLM generate is true. Never trust these things. Also the dollar was relatively stable from 1926 to 1960. Large instances of inflation didn't occur until the end of the Bretton Woods system.
>>526541101thank you for verifying anon, I couldn't find an imageI agree, the bots can't be trusted
>>526541101instantly started going bankrupt with the combination of the space program, proxy wars and welfare embezzlers
>>526541440>proxy wars and welfare embezzlersThis much is true.
>>526541440>welfare embezzlersI believe the official name wasLBJ's Great Society
>>526540830Annoying leftover from the past...Ah, like boomers. Got it
>>526541440The space program was relatively minor. At most it was 4% of US spending. It was definitely worth it because it lead to an era of technological dominance for the US. >proxy warsFor the USSR and PRC this was a proxy war. For the US it was direct intervention. Military spending has made up at least half of all US spending in the last century as well as one of the main sources of any budget deficits together with LBJ's great society>welfare embezzlarsIf we didn't have the Vietnam war or welfare embezzlars, we probably could've spent MORE on space and gotten much further still without any budget deficits. What a shame. Niggers, Gooks, and Kikes ruin everything yet again.
>>526542046>it was 4% of US spendingwew lad!>In 2021, total federal spending was approximately $6.8 trillion. Of this, about $2.9998 trillion was spent on COVID-19 relief through major programs as of May 31, 2021.Boomers got to spend 4% going to the moon.Zoomers were ordered to stay home at 44%.
>>526542681>BoomersActually Boomers were the deadbeat college dropouts who were smoking weed an hanging around woodstock. The people who went to the moon were primarily of the Silent Generation. Boomers at most weren't even 18 years old until 1964 and hence weren't even of legal age.
