“The natural state of the free market is deflation”

Is a truth that has just really hit home

A naturally observable point

That struck me just now whilst putting IKEA furniture together

- Attempt 1 of shelving unit took a while

- Unit 2 was quicker

- By unit 4 I had a process that was streamlined

Same inputs (labour, raw material), same output (shelving unit), but with superior IP in production

This is a small example of why the trend of deflation is true

- Faster

- Cheaper

- Stronger

Natural outcomes from the attention of intelligence to anything it’s pointed at

It’s something that has been on my mind since listening to nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmcps7ypf talking with nostr:nprofile1qqsfgg2lg25kxdwg0l9eazq6pwak9wd8j4geuyyu7hua9mmpw6qlvgspzdmhxw309ucnydewxqhrqt338g6rsd3eq9w8wumn8ghj7urjdau8jtnwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9eshqup08p3n2dejxdnryd3sxyenxdpjxv6x2vfexgexgvn98q6ryepkvf3xvv3s8yersvmzxqmnzv3svgekvvtyxvurvd3s8ycn2e33xvmnjvcjv0350 and nostr:npub1qkntvygrrxkc3ynfzw56aq8far9wnxcfjd8d4lfwhnnlnctn4k5sa2d05s recently

It’s so simple

It’s so obvious

But somehow so hard to grasp

Can it really be true that everything gets cheaper forever?

This simple truth will be normal on a Bitcoin standard

But we’ve been warped

Lied to

Miss-lead

Because our status quo measuring stick for value implies everything is getting more expense forever

That horrible feeling when real estate prices just keep getting further out of reach in the area you live in…

It’s not real

It’s fake

You’re being stolen from via the stealth tax of inflation

Wow what an insight to really hit home

On such a simple task

Hundreds of other tasks to complete as we unpack

Cheers to deflation all

Back to work

🙏🏻💪🏻😎

Cost of labour, energy, production, materials etc all trend to zero.

So why does shit get more expensive?

The only answer is broken money.

Is this true?

“Cost of labour, energy, production, materials etc all trend to zero.”

I still require labour, energy, and raw material, I just put it together faster

So the cost of inputs isn’t changing per say

Perhaps labour is less as less time is required?

The same way you became more productive should cascade through all inputs.

Nice. Great way to explain

There can be no free market with manipulated money.

It only works if the money is scarce. I was asking why this (deflation)wasn't the case way back iin college economics. Never got a good answer.

Because college economics is Keynesianism

Which vouches for loose monetary policy
