Re: BankNote of the Day- Your Money, Our Economy..

As you say in your last sentence: "The real comparison is what will 1 hour of labor buy, then and now."

Is that hour of labor before or after taxes? vbg

Along the same lines as your comments on the U.S. Dollar in the world, there's an interesting book on the subject:
"Exhorbitant Privilege: The Rise and Fall of the Dollar ..."
