Demon of Inflation

There is a restaurant chain in my home state of Tennessee that is somewhat similar to the more well-known White Castle that used to occasionally sell twenty square little burgers for one dollar even in my lifetime (fifty-eight years). When we drove past one of these eateries yesterday, Mom read the sign and said it was promoting "12 Krystals for just $14". I do not know if they were ever health food or even all that good, but they sure are not worth over a dollar apiece. From five cents a burger to one dollar and seventeen cents each is mighty testament to inflation run wild.
