Who are you and why are you so handsome?
-I'm Solid Snake, and I'm your clone.
My clone? How?
-Remember when you donated all that blood, semen, and hair in 1977?
Yes
Well the Patriots intercepted that package and cloned me from the saliva you used to seal the envelope.
Home sweet Paradise.

New study finds that a minimum-wage worker in 1971 had a lifestyle similar to someone earning $100k in 2026.
But its actually WORSE than that.
Inflation was 7% in the last 30 years (not 2% as fed claims) $1.60, 7% inflation, 55 years = $66 per hour x 2000 = $132k
Compare that to Silver/Gold and it gets even worse.
In 1971 minimum wage was $1.60 and silver was $1.60 an oz ($70 per oz today) (fits the $66 per hour estimate) Gold was $35 an oz, ($1.60 x 40 = $64) meaning you could buy 1.82 oz of gold with 40 hours of work (minimum wage) today it costs $4265 for one oz, $4265 x 1.82 = 7762.30/40 = $194.05.
In order to have the same purchasing power as someone in 1971 you would have earn a whopping $194.05 per hour, in other words: $403,624 per year.
Note: Only 2% of Americans make more than $400k per year, even if you count dual (household) income that's 3-4%.
“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit. We are no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.” - Woodrow Wilson 1919
