The last time the Chicago Cubs won the World Series was 1908. In that year…
Stamps cost 2 cents
Bread cost 5 cents
A gallon of gas cost 11 cents
Eggs cost 14 cents
Minimum wage was 22 cents per hour
And the average U.S. salary was 300 dollars per year
Laughing at the Cubs for their misfortune? Well, you should be laughing at yourself. The Federal Reserve was founded just five years after the Chicago Cubs won the World Series and since that time, the U.S. Dollar has lost over 98 percent of it’s value. All during this time, we are taught that inflation is “just supposed to happen”. The depreciation of a currency is by far the easiest way to steal from others without getting caught. My name is Michael Guyer. I am a libertarian Chicago Cubs fan and I approved this message.
