I find milk is more expensive in 1958 dollars than it would be for us to buy milk today. Rent has gone down since 95.00/month on 1995 dollars would have been more than 400.00/month today

*facepalm* and you ressurected a 5 month old thread, full of bad math and little understanding of realities of simple ecconomics - for that little gem?

Well done.

Minium wage in 1970 was only $1.50/hr: http://srv116.servic...?lang=eng&dec=1

That is not fair to say, because we had less visible minorities back then. Visible minorities were kept out of higher positions, and it was not until 1982 that equality was legally made with the birth of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms under Trudeau's Administration.
