Not even the five dollar footlong lasted much longer than a decade. Outside of new technology, nothing is going to get less expensive over the time span of 30 years. That's guaranteed by the 2-3% inflation target.

I don’t disagree with what you said. I am of the opinion however based on my experience - that these large jumps as we experiencing right now - tend to stick and make you wish for the good old 2-3% inflation.
