The fallacy is saving.

Saving is not a fallacy. Government has made saving [intentionally] a foolish activity, but saving, under normal circumstances, is what creates economic growth and rising living standards.

-——Saving is not a fallacy-———

In the present context, there can be no saving in the old context. What you consider as saving, socking cash away, is actually losing. There is no return, the value decreases because of devaluation/inflation.
