      Yeah, same old story. Coolidge and Hoover worked so hard to get inflation down. Hoover had it down to -10% by 1933, but then fascist FDR hoodwinked the American people and cherry-picked that perfect economy! He jacked inflation up to over 12% by 1942! Some other stuff happened, too, as I recall, but that inflation, though! I guess some things never change.
