Gold Value of Apartments Sinks
in response to reader comment: Who Cares about Gold Value Apartments

Unless your after tax income grows faster than the dollar is losing value, you are likely to experience a continually declining standard of living as measured by your ability to buy what you choose with your money.

This is one way you will pay for a share of the wasteful spending by politicians in all levels of government.

Unfortunately, most of the leading candidates for President from both parties are not even mentioning this problem, and Ron Paul's program for dealing with it goes in the right direction, but not far enough to solve the problem.
