Oberg: "The real significance of the ISS thruster test failure"
In article ,
says...
So what happened last time oil hit that level -- yeah, I'm
counting inflation, which the mainstream media dishonestly
disregards. $97/barrel in 1979-1980.
The traditional "inflation adjusted" numbers have their own dishonesty.
Part of inflation is the rise in oil prices, so traditional inflation
numbers *underestimate* the significance of increased oil prices.
