None of those claims are backed up by actual evidence. I pointed directly to a graph of the CPI which explicitly shows the dollar is only inflating by a few points each year and most recently (when the largest amount of noise was coming out of people's faces about gold) the dollar was actually in a deflation period and getting more valuable.
There may be flaws with the CPI-U data, but I don't know of a better data source. Feel free to point one out.
Until you do however, the data we've explored in this thread directly contradicts all of your assertions, despite their popularity among some.
