here's one cpi series ending in 1993

daft.com

compare say 1980, the historical high price for gold and some other years when gold traded well above todays prices

and it is hard to make a case either way...

secondly, you are currently at a stage where what is counted is in an environment where prices have either not been raised or cannot be (so called deflation) and yet we all know prices are rising and have been rising in very important ways in many other places.. food, insurances, homes, commodities, taxes both income and real estate/school and sales taxes... and some of these have been rising well before the bust. autos too through these years have risen dramatically.... but we know those were never purchased <g> and will now be dumped for no new sales at all.
