Oh, so any day now I should be able to buy choice T-bone steak for $.78 a pound again as I did back in ‘72.

It's not monetary deflation (the Fed can always print more money to offset that) ... it's REAL deflation (our capacity to produce things exceeds our capacity to consume them).

P.S. -- This is why every government and business organization is hell-bent on maintaining an open-borders policy. We don't need these immigrants for their cheap labor ... we need them to replace a lost generation of consumers.
