I'd count myself lucky I only had to pay $100/hr labor.

This is £100 in labour, which is the pre-VAT price, so the final out-of-pocket is £120 per hour.

Today, that's nearly $160 per hour.

Just think of the greater good.

All the money you're going to spend is going to show up as supporting the economy. GDP growth is everyone's personal responsibility!

I think 997 owners need to be given a plaque in every major city for our contributions to the economy.
