Deflation in this sense is good, as it allows prices to fall for those who make sound financial decisions, save, and hold money; sound money. While taking from those who choose to lever up or hold a debt-laden money. Money that pre-spends its future by pulling it forward into today.
This is the flaw of fiat currencies like the dollar.
They are debt based. They pre-spend our future without any intention of thinking about how the piper must be paid.
