Like eating, clothes, housing and drinking

It doesn't matter if it is individually good for your to delay consumption when society is burning because everyone is

Inflation just makes shortrun consumption and therefore degeneracy attractive

Or it incentivizes investment

What is worse is cheap loans

@Mr. Nessel
That's the problem... That's why socialism with taxation and inflation destroys tje wealth of average famikies

Therefore they rather go sex drugs rock roll instead of saving for children's college e.g.

No that's precisely the point against deflation

Everyone beign a rational actor in this case is fucking horrendous

It crashes the economy

Noo

It doesn't

Only if there is an inflationary credit bubble

Tell me how the economy doesn't crash if people don't spend money

It crashes because of inflationary credit bubbles

No

It crashes because deflation causes it to not run the factories since nobody is buying anything

Again

You need to buy goods to live

Yes, essentials

then switch to gold standard

You cannot delay most consumption

You realize you can buy gold under a fiat system

No need for your autism

people dont stop buying goods under deflation

Yes, and fiat gold is like a stable shadow currency

they simply spend less

Or buy more

They delay purchases

yes

That's good

they delay thats the good part

That lowers the time preference

If a car is getting cheaper week by week and everyone refuses to buy it the car factory owner will shut down production and fire his workers

if they didnt theyd spend the excess on partying and fucking

Those workers will not be able to spend money on things like cars to begin with

then why is the car cheaper?

This spirals out of control

@Mr. Nessel
That's good, because mkre people can buy more cars

> This spirals out of control
@Mr. Nessel
No, because at some point someone needs to buy

The car gets cheaper because by the week the currency is appreciating
