Sorry, reality is that deflation in much more dangerous to the economy than inflation. Our economy would be much better with 2% inflation than 2% deflation. Get back to me once you understand basic macroeconomics.

The richest, by organizing and paying others to do the labor, and taking their due from the a part of the value they add by enabling their employees (or the people they invested in) to make a better living.

Wow, Marx would be proud.

You're saying that Marx thought that "the rich" earned their money?

All this time I thought he said that the rich were parasites and didn't add any value to the economy.

If you re-read my post you might see that I clearly said the rich got their money by?

(Hint: creating jobs, enabling productivity, and investing the the labor, enthusiasm, and abilities of others)

And, yeah, a little inflation is "better" than a little deflation. Especially if you are a borrower.

Maybe not quite so good if you are a lender or investor, though...
