- josefritzishere 8mo agoTrump has been devaluing the dollar quite rapidly. Give it time. The US will become a like developing nation in no time.

- direwolf20 8mo agoThe US is, and always has been, a developing nation. What sets it apart from all other developing nations is that it controls the de facto world currency, making it a very wealthy developing nation. All of the cultural factors are closer to a third world country, but the wealth is first world, more like Russia than like western Europe.
- klardotsh 8mo agoTell me about it. I remember being able to snag a nice room at a Courtyard/Hampton caliber of hotel for like $100 in 2016-18 timeframe. Based on https://www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation/2016?amount=100 https://www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation/2016?amount=100 I would expect that to cost about $135 now if adjusting only for (hyper)inflation. It instead tends to cost something like $175-225/night. WTAF.
