Go to a restaurant in New York, or a grocery store, and tell me that there's no inflation.
Look here: In 2001, it cost 9 dollars to go to the top of the Empire State Building. Now it's 27 dollars to go to the 86th floor, 44 dollars to go to the top, and 67 dollars to go express. The Museum of Modern Art in 2001 was 10 dollars, now it's 25 dollars. A cab from Kennedy airport to Manhattan in 2001 was 30 dollars plus tolls. Now it starts at 52 dollars.
