Some economics say that deflation is evil because people won't spend their money on something that gets cheaper, I wonder how that would happen when most of money is spent on essentials like rent, fuel and food.

It's bad for borrowers, which is a large chunk of the country's common men, because the real value of their debt increases (the opposite of what we were used to years ago when our mortgages were 'reduced' in real terms by inflation over time).Originally posted by petergriffin View PostDeflation is bad for the banks and for the richest 0.1% but good for the common man because your money can buy more stuff.

It also encourages savers to hoard their money, reducing economic activity, which causes more businesses to fail.

No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.Comment
