Everything should always get more affordable over time.
There are only two reasons it wouldn’t:
• Technology or production capacity has been physically destroyed.
• Someone is counterfeiting ...
But then there's the political reality of the situation.
We've been conditioned into believing our labor and assets should become more valuable over time, so we turn a blind eye to (or are blissfully ignorant of) the money printer that reinforces that conditioning, while it conveniently helps politicians buy votes without triggering tax revolts; massive indirect theft.
If more people were aware that their purchasing power actually **increases** while the money printer is turned off, they wouldn't care about their income and assets appreciating. It's a chicken and egg situation, and I think the only thing that will fix it (undo the conditioning) is the complete destruction of the money printer, and that will be very painful to the unenlightened, and they will turn to the same tyrants who have stolen from them for a quick "fix": direct theft from the productive class.
Thank God for the 2nd Amendment and Bitcoin. That's our only hope.
