Neat! I like the perspective you gave to the numbers. Relative is relatively relative, it seems.
I don't agree with your ideas about the passing on of cost to consumers...are we using more gas to move things now than in 1950? What standard of living was min wage then compared to now?
Still, I like the idea that numbers are misleading. Wish I had more of a knowledge base to put it all in perspective. I remain far more annoyed at the barriers to market entry and the insane possibility of government subsidizing these already highly profitable ventures myself.
