It's so incredibly hard to hear someone go off about "how expensive everything is" and how "we dont get paid enough" and "how low wages are"...

Then explain to them that inflation literally causes all of this, and that the reason it feels like running on a treadmill is because **by default you get poorer if you dont get at least a 7% raise every year.**

And then they say "but nobody would buy anything if money got more valuable, it would ruin the economy."

Mothafukr you are LITERALLY linking the chains that you complain about weighing you down.

Yeah, if money got more valuable, we'd stop doing anything interesting or consuming anything, because it might be cheaper in the future. It's a fact, experts have confirmed it.

For example, since I became a Bitcoiner, I have stopped driving, eating, working, cut the internet, gone on vacation, stopped feeding my animals, and no longer pay for home utilities, because it'll be cheaper in the future.
