The 1972 inflation rate was about 4%, according to the official government index, but there was also a booming black market in food and other consumer items, an outgrowth of government price controls. The black market prices -what Greeks refer to as "the hat" -are the difference between what the government says the local butcher can charge for a piece of veal, and what the shopper actually...
