Few seem to have any concept of how much easier life would be if money got more valuable over time rather than less.

ESPECIALLY during a period of massive technological deflation. Imagine if everything you needed for your living standard was 10% cheaper/better quality each year? The literal opposite of the current system.

I think that all but few have the cognitive flexibility to realize that there must have been something in that Kool-Aid they drank…. I see no other reason for this concept being out of their grasp. And people in my circle have doctoral level degrees, self made millionaires, fortune 100 C Suite, etc. None are immune…

I have used the “has it become more expensive or tricky to make a loaf of bread? A shovel? Etc. when I pose it like that, I have sometimes seen a flicker behind their eyes, but so often it is doused by the Kool-Aid.

My elementary school aged son is being brought up, Kool-Aid free, and we have thousands of kids in LATAM that are being brought up in this truth. I pray that it changes this dynamic!

Great angle! I will use your "tricky" question next time discussing with friends

Would you please expand upon the line of thinking relating to shovels and bread? Is the deflationary principle that these items SHOULD be easier and cheaper to produce vs. more costly and difficult?

Yes. Products become easier to produce and there are more producers and they should become cheaper.
