Everything Should Always Get More Affordable

Everything Should Always Get More Affordable

I break down the biggest lie we've all deeply internalized about the economy: that prices are just supposed to go up. In a productive and advancing society, almost everything should actually be getting more affordable over time.

Using a very simple analogy, I show exactly how the creation of new money quietly robs us of the prosperity our hard work should be delivering.
