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?

2020-04-18 21:31:11 UTC  

except they dont save the money

2020-04-18 21:31:15 UTC  

Because the economy crashes

2020-04-18 21:31:24 UTC  

That's why delaying purchases is bad

2020-04-18 21:31:33 UTC  

> Because the economy crashes
@Mr. Nessel
It crushes, because of too much debts

2020-04-18 21:31:47 UTC  

No because the factories close

2020-04-18 21:31:50 UTC  

Because of deficit spending

2020-04-18 21:31:56 UTC  

Because all the retards stop spending money

2020-04-18 21:32:11 UTC  

There is no point in producing anything if people only buy essentials

2020-04-18 21:32:24 UTC  

This is basic

2020-04-18 21:32:33 UTC  

@Mr.Fisch(炫龙) wait, do you want deflation all the time or just some of the time?

2020-04-18 21:32:37 UTC  

> That's why delaying purchases is bad
@Mr. Nessel
It's good. Families saves for their children or take more free time for their families. This begets cultural development and family values

@McFansy
The more the better
