were kids, their own grandparents likely told stories to them 
about how much more expensive things were in their youth.
Yet despite the obvious benefi ts of lower prices, we still 
fear defl ation. We are told that if prices were to fall, people 
would stop buying, companies would stop spending, workers 
would lose their jobs, and we would all return to the 
economic dark ages. 
But we all see time and time again how falling prices do not 
deter particular industries. In the early twentieth century, 
Henry Ford made a fortune, and his workers became the 
best paid in the industry, by steadily bringing down the 
price of cars. More recently the computer industry has 
made bundles of money despite the fact that its products 
constantly experience signifi cant price defl ation. Yet 
despite plunging prices the computer revolution continues 
unabated. As a result of this effi ciency in design and 
manufacture, millions and millions of people each year 
spend less and less to experience the marvels of digitization.  
Despite this, most people assume that defl ation is okay if it’s 
confi ned to just one industry. Why would that be? 
Modern economists mistakenly assume that spending drives 
growth, and that when defl ation is present, people tend 
to defer purchases (to allow prices to fall); and when they 
do spend, the diminished price makes less of an economic 
impact. This is absurd. 
As we’ve said before, it’s not the spending that means 
anything. It’s the production that counts!
