Mississippi ($115.21)And where the relative value of $100 is the least:
Arkansas ($114.29)
South Dakota ($114.16)
Alabama ($114.03)
West Virginia ($113.12)
Washington, D.C. ($84.96)The map shows that the relative value of $100 is less in most northeastern states, with the exception of Maine, Rhode Island and Pennsylvania, where it’s $102.35, $101.94 and $101.42, respectively.
Hawaii ($86.06)
New York ($86.73)
New Jersey ($87.34)
California ($89.05.
But a Benjamin won’t pack the same punch in states like New York ($86.73) and Massachusetts ($93.20). Meanwhile, the relative value of $100 is the least in the nation’s capital, at just $84.96.
States in the west fared considerably better than those in the east, with the exception of California and Colorado. The relative value of $100 in those two states is $89.05 and $97.85, respectively.
But in every single Southern state, the relative value of $100 is more than the actual amount. The same is true of Midwestern states, with the exception of Illinois, where the relative value of $100 is $99.01.
According to the Tax Foundation, the numbers are based on data it obtained from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, adjusted according to how much $100 can buy in every state and Washington, D.C.

Is this the value of a $100 Federal Reserve Note or a $100 gold coin?
What a con. Show us what it is worth based on the imaginary inflation created by the Fed and the Dark Ones. As I remember, the value is now about 98% less than it used to be. Hmmm..... that means the bastards took the bulk of what we created and worked out. Let's not forget this has been going on for a number of generations. Hope all of the freaky bastards will be gone or in jail very soon!!!
