re: #692 iossarian

NOW you tell me.

I thought it was common knowledge. The price of used cars— except cars with some significance, like a Shelby— decreases over time. A 1986 Ferrari Testarossa cost a bit over a hundred K when it was new— not sure if that’s inflation-adjusted dollars or not. Now you can snag them from between 35 and 80K, depending on condition.

Maybe BFT is mocking himself and the economic ignorance of others like him? I mean, using cars as an example of something that appreciates value, pretending to not understand that regulatory powers of the executive comes from legislation made by congress— it’s a pretty effective parody of right-wing economic positions, but Poe’s Law applies.
