Logic, you just don't get it.

And unless you run the The Luxor, average hourly electricity costs are nowhere near 60 cents an hour, much less "almost...more." Do you pay $432 a month in electricity?

Math, you just don't get it.
Actually, he does get it. He said a candy bar has almost doubled since 1998. Lot's of things in America have. Yet games gave stayed the same or around the same price for years. That's something to be grateful for. Hell, some 2600 games in 1980 were $40. How much was the original VCS in 1977? Hell, 30 years later, the Wii was $249, the same price.
