No.

2020-04-18 21:26:02 UTC  

Inflation is at about 2% for a while

2020-04-18 21:26:14 UTC  

People still are becoming worse every generation

2020-04-18 21:26:15 UTC  

It's inflation, taxation and social welfare that destroys culture and traditional families

2020-04-18 21:26:26 UTC  

2% is too much

2020-04-18 21:26:33 UTC  

Totally not cultural forces

2020-04-18 21:26:37 UTC  

@Mr.Fisch(炫龙) aren't families just a group of individuals by your definition?

2020-04-18 21:26:38 UTC  

We need deflation

2020-04-18 21:26:45 UTC  

Deflation is horrible

2020-04-18 21:26:46 UTC

@McFansy
Yes

2020-04-18 21:26:47 UTC  

Or technology

2020-04-18 21:26:57 UTC  

> Deflation is horrible
@Mr. Nessel
Deflation is based

2020-04-18 21:27:03 UTC  

It artificially makes people not spend when they otherwise would

2020-04-18 21:27:06 UTC  

Inflation is theft

2020-04-18 21:27:11 UTC  

Which creates unemployment

2020-04-18 21:27:32 UTC  

Omge... You are mainstream Keynesian bluepilled man

2020-04-18 21:27:52 UTC  

Employment is a means not an end in itself

2020-04-18 21:28:06 UTC  

It's a matter of fact that people will delay purchases if there's deflation

2020-04-18 21:28:11 UTC  

I think the Great Depression disagrees with you

2020-04-18 21:28:17 UTC  

Letting money sit around is wise under those conditions

2020-04-18 21:28:19 UTC  
2020-04-18 21:28:27 UTC  

This is why the gold standard was horrendous

2020-04-18 21:28:31 UTC  

So you delay drinking water everyday? Because in a month its cheaper?

2020-04-18 21:28:38 UTC  

Anything heard of time preference?

2020-04-18 21:28:41 UTC  

No but possibly a car

2020-04-18 21:28:48 UTC  

Why is that bad?

2020-04-18 21:28:49 UTC  

I mean what even is a deflationary spiral?

2020-04-18 21:28:54 UTC  

Which makes the car factory worker unemployed

2020-04-18 21:29:04 UTC  

He can do other work then

2020-04-18 21:29:14 UTC  

Not if spending in general is down

2020-04-18 21:29:22 UTC  

Which it would be

2020-04-18 21:29:25 UTC  

That's putting factors of production into mkre useful places

2020-04-18 21:29:31 UTC  

Deflation affects all industries

2020-04-18 21:29:37 UTC  

Yes

2020-04-18 21:29:38 UTC  

People reduce themselves to essentials

2020-04-18 21:30:02 UTC  

and the alternative is they spend money on useless shit

2020-04-18 21:30:10 UTC  

So why is it bad, that the price per megabyte HDD got cheaper the last 60 years?

2020-04-18 21:30:22 UTC  

and become more degen in the process

2020-04-18 21:30:25 UTC  

Streets must be full of unemployed

2020-04-18 21:30:48 UTC  

Some minor inflation is just going to make sure the people don't artificially put off purchases and maybe invest the money if they want to save

2020-04-18 21:31:06 UTC  

Why is putting off purchases bad?
