The future of inflation

Am I the only one that hates dollar menus? Unless I’m at White Castle, I want a burger that is the size of a real burger.

In the old days, the product stayed the same and inflation made the price go up. Now the price stays the same and the products get smaller and smaller. Burgers will never cost a grand. Instead you’ll still pay a dollar, but you’ll wind up with an infinitely small speck of nourishment.
