Wow, it’s so amazing that the price of gold remains forever consistent. If we had a resource-backed currency inflation could never happen because we never adjust the cost of silver. Scarcity and psychology have no power here!

I’m flabbergasted. I would have thought that your graphs that claimed to show no inflation yet clearly increased would have prepared you for irony.
