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.

It's so obvious and once you see it, you can't unsee it.
The rat race is a treadmill. Just get off and walk towards bitcoin.
I think of this one quite often...


Amen
Losing a job because of technological advancement would be way less of a deal if you'd been able to save in a hard money your whole life.

I tried to test the (algia), which is a command line tool to deal with #nostr protocol, I think it will help me to post to my nostr account using #Termux on my #Android, this allows me to schedule my posts and maybe there are more uses to discover.
I wrote the command to send (like) event to a note of a certain id:

Imagine how much less of a burden the welfare state would "need" to be (to meet people's expectations). Every year the narrative is always about increasing transfers to help cost of living, or increasing numbers of people facing material hardship.
Same goes for "government services" financed through tax.
Societal shifts would be immense from this alone.
People are programmed to parrot the Keynesian lie that deflation is bad.
The craziest part to me is people seem more interested in being right and getting poorer, than being wrong and getting richer.
That's because people don't have any financial education at all... If public school doesn't provide this education, it is by purpose...
We would be more responsible
Really important to think about these issues!!
It is difficult to imagine because we are generations that weren't born during a gold-standard driven economy.
i dont get
why they dont get it
its a dont get world
is my guess
The system is rotten precisely because it goes the opposite of what it should go ๐คทโโ๏ธ instead of improving the quality of life of citizens getting worse every year. And the fault is the god money who is rotten and corrupt. And they print it inflating it more and more
But 2% inflation provides monetary stimulus๐คก
How they managed to make people believe inflation is good is something I will never understand
looking forward to the great taking series. the first part was ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
I'd prefer a time when it costs only 10% of today's living costs to cover all of the necessities of life in modern society. The other 90% could be put anymore non-inflationary savings or investments, with a portion of that used to spend apart from the necessities of life.
Great ๐ค๏ธ
I think people do experience this with technology. Everyone has a smartphone now. Few experience with everything.
Great point, Iโve never put the 2 together O.o
