2020 and February 2021, and pressed "Calculate".
And it says: "$100.00 in February 2020 has the same buying power as
$101.68 in February 2021."
So that would indicate an annual inflation rate of 1.68%.
I used January 2021 and February 2021, and got $100.55, then multiplied the 0.55% by 12.
Actually I should have compounded the change, but I figured it would not make a difference in two significant places. If so, the inflation is actually higher.
Sounds like he read Navigator's book. Navigator talks about the basic "survival unit" being at least a couple hundred people who work together, swap skills, cooperate with defense, etc. Main point is, you're a goner by yourself, or even with a few people, you need a community to survive. In some situations, it may be as simple as talking to other people in your neighborhood.Tom Mazanec wrote: Mon Mar 15, 2021 8:09 am Here is a post on how to prep which is different from most:

Exactly ten years after the civil war in Syria began under similar circumstances. Could history repeat? And if it does, could it drag in the US, China, and India into a proxy war?John wrote: Mon Mar 15, 2021 9:29 am ** 15-Mar-2021 World View: Myanmar / Burma violence continues to grow explosively
Over 50 peaceful protesters were shot dead by security forces in
Yangon, Myanmar / Burma, over the weekend.
According to reports by BBC correspondent Jonathan Head, the security
forces (police + army) are becoming extremely contemptuous of the
peaceful protestors. They shoot people without provocation, picking
them off from bridges with high-powered rifles, and then picking off
someone who tries to help. According to Head, they're posting videos
expressing contempt of ordinary civilian protesters.
This is the same kind of contempt that the army showed for Rohingya
Muslims, when they were conducting genocide and ethnic cleansing.
If this isn't a real sign of an impending civil war, then I don't know
what is. The next step would be for someone to supply weapons to
protesters.
There are significant differences.DaKardii wrote: Mon Mar 15, 2021 10:51 am > Exactly ten years after the civil war in Syria began under similar

The 1.9T$ stimulus was only a (virtually) sure thing this year, so it would not impact things that early.John wrote: Mon Mar 15, 2021 8:34 amSo did you try Jan-Feb 2020 (0.27%) and Feb-Mar 2020 (-0.22%)?Tom Mazanec wrote: Mon Mar 15, 2021 8:01 amNo, John.John wrote: Fri Mar 12, 2021 9:35 am ** 12-Mar-2021 World View: CPI

What would you conclude from those figures?
