Environmentalists say to conserve resources, bring my own grocery bags to the store, and stop wasting. So why is encouraging everyone to mindlessly consume through continuous debasement of the currency a good thing? If saving money didn’t mean I would constantly lose my wealth, given interest on cash savings is vastly lower than inflation, I wouldn’t have to buy whatever asset I could get my grubby hands on. I could focus more on quality, and vendors would have to put more effort into convincing me to part with my savings.
