Are you seriously asking for a list of every economic downturn in history?
When prices drop, unemployment goes up, people can't buy shit, rinse and repeat.

Sure you may be dying of thirst, but it’s better then drowning! Completely ignoring like reason and stuff.

The situations end up exactly the same. Either things cost more than you can afford, or your money ain't worth shit to be able to afford anything. The only real difference is which number is fucked up: the price of the goods or the value of your money.

Well inflation IS bad, and at least here is outstripping pay increases for most people.
But those burrito private taxis are probably one of the few things going up in price more slowly than, you know things you actually need.

I haven't gotten a raise in almost 10 years.
Different companies.
Moved to a different state.
Now I just can't find work period.
Inflation isn't the only problem.

Okay, show me this happening. Because literally every economic crisis I've had the privilege to live through, thanks the the Keynesians, the Chicago School of Business types, and Friedmans, has been associated with inflation.
Show me. Prove it. These economists make claims and don't have to back them up with empirical data or theories that predict future states of the world.
I don't make the assumption something is true because it sounds good and tells a good story. Prove it.

Okay, done and concluded. Thank you.

What if we valued labor over ownership of stuff?

If you have debt, deflation increases the value of your debt making it harder to pay off.

Inflation makes goods aka stocks increase value, which makes rich fucks that live on loans be able to then ask another loan for a bigger amount to pay off the loan from before just because their assets passively rose in value.
It's the scam by which the ultra rich live by doing absolutely nothing while the rest of us that are saving for a house or whatever see our savings year by year diminished.
Yeah fuck that.

We've had inflation as we know it since the 1970s and still had economic downturns since then. Were we simply not printing money hard enough?

Sounds like an intrinsic flaw of monetary based economics then.
Maybe we should do something about it? It isn't like alternatives don't exist.

If deflation was persistent, couldn't debt have a very low or even negative interest rate?
