Fuck, that is a new idea.
I never made this particular connection :ablobcatsweatsip:

But even if you can manufacture cheaper products, you still need someone to do it without demanding too much salary. But to keep salaries low, you need unemployment.

The best way to increase unemployment and lower average prices is to attack small businesses. Small businesses will typically offer premium products which command higher prices from discerning customers - but this drives inflation. So the clever bureaucrat will regulate them out of existence and replace them with big box stores selling bottom price slop.

Remember that people will also work practically for free, if they're in prison.

You can now probably see how so much investment money becomes available for cost-saving food ideas from "plant based burgers" to "bug protean". Anything which can make consumer items cheaper can make more money printing acceptable.

And you can now hopefully see how fiat money can destroy an entire nation.

I believe, that there are at least 2 partial "solutons", that can be done, that will ease the suffering, while not needing a collapse.

1) You can ensure each community is d
food, water and electricity self sufficient. This should have been done a long time ago, even if only for purpose of war economy, but the changes needed are not even drastic.

2) Mandate creation of community centers big enough, to allow free meetings of all age groups. While the base form does exist for kids in school, after that, there is 0 need for people in a community to ever meet for a drink of tea. And while I am not sure what form such a center should have, consumerism based pubs and shopping centers do fail at this role miserably.

Where did we go wrong that the 1971 JVC Video Capsule would never be made today.

I seriously hate, that they are actively trying to lobotomize the AI.
This way, we cannot even study it properly.

Hanging yourself by baloons might be the dumbest unique suicide idea out there :blobartist:

She was looking for signs of life, while shooting anything that moved.

Makes sense.
