minus-squareteelin134@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·28 days agoBy the time most places had $15, it should’ve been $25
minus-squaredeathbird@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·28 days agoPretty close $24.85 adjusted for inflation for today. But even inflation indexing seems a little iffy when things like housing have been outpacing the general rate.
minus-squareteelin134@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·26 days agoYeah, it should now be even higher than $25.
