Asking for the 'correct' interest rate is like asking how much the color orange weighs.\" ~ Allen Farrington & Sacha Meyers What if deflation isn't the economic boogeyman we've been told to fear, but the very *signal* that progress is happening? In Part 2 of Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers' brilliant essay, we dismantle the central myth of fiat economics – that printing money creates growth – and reveal why falling prices are the only honest measure that innovation has actually occurred. If the fiat prescription worked, where's the evidence? And why have central authorities never let us run the experiment?
