Rothbard said the size of the money supply is not important as long as money production follows the market process. He was therefore implicitly in favor of a naturally limited money supply whose growth is extremely slow.
True, no one called for artificial deflation. But he viewed productivity-driven deflation as healthy.
Why do you view maximally deflationary environment so critically?
Rothbard advocated a fixed money supply and saw deflation as a consequence of economic growth.

What if your child realizes that your supervision was actually his imprisonment?
I'm not afraid of isolation. I'm afraid of getting lost among the masses. Those mindless copies who live their lives based on expectations and applause. Your conformity disgusts me. Your conformity stinks. I don't need to belong. I need authenticity. And I can't find that with you.
You don't have to tell the collectivist about being me. For him, that's like telling a fish about mountain climbing. He measures the value of the day by harmony, fulfillment of duty, and caring. You talk about inner fire, he talks about a functioning gear system.
