“The natural state of the free market is deflation”

Is a truth that has just really hit home

A naturally observable point

That struck me just now whilst putting IKEA furniture together

- Attempt 1 of shelving unit took a while
- Unit 2 was quicker
- By unit 4 I had a process that was streamlined

Same inputs (labour, raw material), same output (shelving unit), but with superior IP in production

This is a small example of why the trend of deflation is true

- Faster
- Cheaper
- Stronger

Natural outcomes from the attention of intelligence to anything it’s pointed at

It’s something that has been on my mind since listening to @nprofile1q... talking with @nprofile1q... and @npub1qkntv... recently

It’s so simple

It’s so obvious

But somehow so hard to grasp

Can it really be true that everything gets cheaper forever?

This simple truth will be normal on a Bitcoin standard

But we’ve been warped

Lied to

Miss-lead

Because our status quo measuring stick for value implies everything is getting more expense forever

That horrible feeling when real estate prices just keep getting further out of reach in the area you live in…

It’s not real

It’s fake

You’re being stolen from via the stealth tax of inflation

Wow what an insight to really hit home

On such a simple task

Hundreds of other tasks to complete as we unpack

Cheers to deflation all

Back to work

🙏🏻💪🏻😎

I think you could make a very good case that Nostr isn’t social media

So if Nostr is where you hang out online

Then you’ve got nothing to worry about

Plenty of things the freedom oriented should be concerned about

The hard part: I’ve just spent my day in Australia doing what I needed, and none of what you mentioned even crossed my mind…

But just because you’re not conscious of it, doesn’t mean it’s not happening

And it’ll effect you just when you don’t need it to

Default option: focus on what you want
