Message: [QUOTE="BroadwayVa, post: 2255955, member: 6118"] Miss leading cost differentials- and better quality paint -higher paid painters--multiply the 1938 cost by about 30---the Gampel original costs by 20 and it brings them closer to the current equivalent with inflation adjusted costs. 1938 prices were depression cost--material and labor were about the lowest of the century. Politician--usually don't do the hard thing--spend the money now --buy more, buy better-now--but 25 years from now is a long time --not! Rt 81 is being widened and repaired and bridges/cross overs added--the once farm or wooded land--now has houses on it--COSTs [/QUOTE]
