Poll: Inflation ?

What do you believe is the average rise in prices in annually, including all goods. Don’t look anything up just give your best estimate of what percent the cost of living goes up annually?

    Inflation is 3% give or take, but that's not what the cost of living increases as. Not around here. Houses went up about five to ten times the value they were ten or fifteen years ago. The cost of living since the fifties or sixties has increased relative to inflation about three times. As in, the average person had three times more then, or the average worker anyway. The average household. Women wanted to work, and what that actually did was make everyone poorer and split up half of all marriages.

    It's typically 2-3% I think we're at 2.1 right now without looking it up.
