We are living in an age of unprecedented wealth, with millions entering the middle class every year. Homo sapiens live longer lifespans than ever before, with better nutrition, and better medicine than ever in our history. This is also the most peaceful time in our history, with record lows in crime and wars. The developing world is surging in wealth and in the west we have more opportunity and access to information than ever.

They did not. Unless they forgot to account for inflation, but that would be a pretty glaring mistake to make.
Depends if that $2.15 was adjusted for inflation I guess.
