And the Bureau of Labor statistics seems to be suggesting inflation went up by a magnitude of about 10 since 1965 based on what their calculator gave me when I put in $204. If anything, that’s a conservative estimate; as you pointed out, car prices have gone up more than that, and you could do the same with houses, candy bars, gasoline as well probably.
In any case, if the camp now costs $6000 a month (1500 * 4), and it used to cost ~200 a month, that would be 30 times more expensive, not 7. If that’s all correct, then that would way exceed anyone’s estimate for inflation.
