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 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dx1@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago* (2 children) this means that there’s less demand, prices go downer, businesses may start to fail, putting people in unemployment, reducing demand, I've always been skeptical of this and I'm not really aware of historical examples that prove it. The part I just quoted - "less demand, prices go downer, businesses may start to fail" - that means supply decreases too. All that's really happening if you have a couple % deflation is that people are slightly more incentivized to hold onto their money, and the fact is that currencies don't just naturally appreciate in value that much, at most in the long term I think you have "the same amount of money in circulation" vs. population growth causing it to chase a slightly larger economy. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] agarorn@feddit.de 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) If you want a historic example look at the politics In Germany that got Hitler into power.

In general, that there was a widespread sense Germany had been wounded somehow, which he was able to capitalize on, telling people to "fight back" against the minority groups he characterized as the forces of oppression.

The simple way of putting it is that people were unhappy in Germany and Hitler was able to capitalize on it in a political campaign against a supposed cause. The German economy in general was on shaky ground following WWI but this was alleviated partially by the Dawes/Young plans, right up until the Great Depression actually started affecting that foreign aid and the economy took another major hit, at which point the Nazis were able to use this as evidence of a "failure in leadership" from the current government, getting Hitler appointed as chancellor, then Reichstag fire started & he seized power. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] agarorn@feddit.de 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) This is a big step away from your "hyperinflation lead to Hitler" claim before. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dx1@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago Well, that's not what I wrote. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Kidplayer_666@lemm.ee 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) It probably only is problematic in the same amount that inflation is bad.
