    Their economic reasons are superstitious nonsense. It’s always been about siphoning wealth from the working class. The purpose of a system is what it does.

      It’s not nonsense, we’ve seen deflation destroy economies plenty of times.

      The issue is that what economists are saying is don’t ask/expect lower prices, demand higher wages. Higher wages produce basically the same result without breaking the economic system.

      Maybe you want the economic system to break, but for most people that would be bad and lead to a lot of death and suffering.
