You mean like you did here, claiming 1933 average income would be $150,000 today when it's actually $25,000? quote:

the average wage today is 44 and if it were inflation corrected based on the av wage in 1933 the average today should be around 150,000. What cost $150000 in 2009 would cost $9149.28 in 1933. What cost $44 in 2009 would cost $2.68 in 1933. average income in 33 was 11000 No, it wasn't--it was $1,550. $25,411.83 in 2009 dollars. $44,000 is looking pretty good....
