First off it's not just inflation. It's the deliberate devaluing of US Currency. That's what QE1, 2, etc were. We're buying back our debt at pennies on the dollar and paying for it by printing money with no, or at least less, value than what we were loaned. There is 540% more money in circulation today than in 2000! There's a huge part of the problem. Then go to step 2- taxes, regulation, fee's, interest and more taxes! Every single gov't program, every grant, every new high school foot ball field or computer lab, every bit of pork is paid for by taxes. In fact, we spend so much we have to borrow to keep up. All that goes to adding to your bill. not just on your taxes, but at McDonalds too.

Then your 20.00 McDonalds meal will be several times that.

The soil is a rich dark brown and is well looked after. unlike some areas in the midlands it is also fairly flat, broken only by hedgerows and the occasional valley and brook. A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
