Yes, yes, everyone can call me daft; call me a fool for the (not too distant at all) old times, but ‘dollar stroll’ seems to roll a little easier off the tongue than the $1 $3 or $5 stroll. People will say, “hey dumb dumb Cornholler or whatever your dumb name is, inflation is like totally a thing.” Well since I didn’t get good marks in school (GED – and close call at that), has the influx of high tax bracket residents to the stroll area made the $5 stroll the new ‘dollar stroll’. I’m just asking; don’t know the answer. Is a fiver now what a dollar used to be due to inflation or changing neighborhood demographics?
