Everything is expensive at first, before getting cheaper in the long rub
yeah except all the things getting more expensive year after year
Like cars? Televisions? Home appliances?
Like dental care
How about sticking to the actual topic: Medicine and dentistry.
Getting a basic filling in 1925 versus the same procedure in 2025.
Regardless of who pays (government, the patient, insurance, etc) which would be more expensive?
By the way:
Basic Model T price in 1909: $825 or $30,000 today.
Basic sedan price in 2025: $30,000
Average price of a car in 2025: $50,000
Cost of model T in 1913: $14,000
Cost of model T in 1916: $9,000
See how the price went down after its 1909 release ? 😁
Find me a new car for $9,000 in the modern day.
Motorcycles can be around that price. Even new.
