Reminds me of a comic strip where a guy goes to Japan and orders a coffee. The cashier says the total is 300 yen and the guy says “damn, coffee is expensive here!”
Problem with deflation is: what do people do when theres deflation when it comes to optional expenses? Well, they may postepone them in hopes that prices go further down, this means that there’s less demand, prices go downer, businesses may start to fail, putting people in unemployment, reducing demand, and death spiral. Basically same thing as inflation death spiral but with deflation. Consumer confidence is a very delicate thing
I hope we see deflation eventually… I know it’s not good for the economy but no one wants to pay 100 dollars for a coke

I just checked, it’s actually 150 yen for a coffee.
This breaks the current economic system and will only occur safely once capitalistic GDP and population growth has ceased completely
Some would argue the current economic system needs a little rattling
