Yes, there has been over 2,000% inflation since then.

2,707%, to be precise.

Nope. Nope. I'm better than that.

It's the internet.  No one knows who you are.  If it's funny, post it.  Funny trumps everything.

Okay. Interesting to see that most of the inflation appears to have happened during the WW1 timeframe.

Also 2700% inflation still means defense spending was about 1.3% of what it currently is.
