Everything is “extend and pretend”, “blue smoke and mirrors” and “let’s boil the general populace in oil so slowly that they won’t notice it”. Modern high tech economies have been creating more costs and so more minimal prices than individual incomes for probably at least a century and that inherently cost inflationary scarcity ratio is only going to get worse with AI. And no matter how strongly you BELIEVE in General Equilibrium, Austrian Deflationary dogmas or the silly @$$ed puritanical righteousness of “the curse of Adam” such theories will never pan out without integrating costless monetary Gifting into the debt based money system. We can in fact have Austrian deflation with a price deflationary retail discount. I’ve shown you the way. You just have to open your mind to it is all.
