No, an inflation index only measures necessities. Ironically that’s a reason inflation always goes up as small electronics and other non-necessities actually have gone down significantly. But as I said the inflation index only counts things like groceries, housing, cars, oil and stuff like that.
That all said, it’d be fascinating to know what is the price limit that would stop hotdog throwing and the other question that needs answered is if this increase would make them more or less money.
That’s what I thought at first, but it’s a direct result of recent food fights.
Sometimes the dogs go on the field, sometimes they throw them at other fans.
So they have to rise the price to the point a Philly fan won’t throw it. Which admittedly got my brain off on a tangent.
Would it be a valid inflation index?
