Is it possible for Deflation or even Hyperdeflation to occur? - People know about the opposite in Hyperinflation, but has the other way been tried?

Per your graph, they were decoupled from the 60s. The 70s had stagflation so their derivatives went to 0. They then increased again with productivity following roughly the same trend and comepnsation not recovering until 97.

Also you can have gold backed currency that ultimately inflates, too. Less gold per dollar is entirely feasible.
 
The wages trend from 2000 onwards isn't on the same trajectory as the productivity trend. They're still diverging just slower. The US went off the gold standard in 1971. And of course it will take some time for immigration to have a noticeable effect.
 
Words don;t even matter anymore, they tell us inflation is Transitory, They dell us when the inverted yeald curve univerts the recession begins, they tell us BS lie after BS lie and we eat it up like goy slop ......... The Fed Printed 40 percent of all currency with the click of a button after Covid and loaned it out in PPP loans and all kinds of crazy programs. we are living in the aftermath of that Liquidity being paid back or defaulted on.

The Great Financial Crisis or Great Recession same thing, The Dot Com Bust, The Savings and Loans Debacle of 1987 . . . . The fed runs a simple game Create a shit load of money loan it out, then wait till it is dried up, create a crisis to do it again.

Inflation is bad But Things are deflating like housing Cars, ....... When all is said and done How much debt do you have? and how much liquidity do you have?

I would rather Sit on the side lines with liquidity/ Zero Debt/ assets and loose out with Equity gains Than Gamble with other people's money in a Cassino chasing that next moon rocket.
 
You don't really want this.

You want low inflation and for wages to keep pace with it.

This requires mass deportation in modernity.
In theory any debt-free "responsible spender" who already paid off a house would want this, but of course such people are an ultra-minority, so we live in a soyciety where staying in debt is sometimes actually beneficial, because over time inflation will offset the interest rate.

Edit: and obviously deflation would conversely be crushing for most people as a result.
 
Found the banker
It makes sense tho, slow inflation gives only a gentle nudge to invest and give loans allowing people to buy homes and start businesses.
The inflation right now is basically you and me being towerbridged by goldstein's usury on one end, and the government's moneyprinters on the other. If you're holding money instead of gold, derivatives and stock you're out of your mind.

Deflation will cause people to not recirculate money and will cause long-term damage to the economy.
 
The "why" is straight forward. The US went off the gold standard in the 70's and in 1965 the (((Hart))) (((Cellar))) act was passed, changing immigration law so infinity migrants could be used to suppress your wages. Also (((feminism))) started and your wife was used to depress your wages as well.
I have a bit of an opinion on this. One, people  were right about the negative consequences of leaving the gold standard and moving to pure fiat currency. They largely came to pass, including large short term inflation, and banks and landowners profiting at the expense of normal people.

However the gold standard was also going to break down. We had in fact printed too much money, so the inflation was just "hidden". France called our bluff and started exchanging their dollars for gold. Ultimately they proved we didn't have the gold to back it up. And if we kept printing money to match the size of the growing real economy, we would never have enough gold. Otherwise we would see deflation which, as others said, drastically chills economic growth.

We stabilized the price of the dollar with "petrodollars", a secret (although people could probably figure out what was going on) deal with the Saudis that they would only accept US dollars for their oil. This meant every country reliant on Saudi oil needed USD, stabilizing the currency. It also had a lot of other consequences on world currencies and tied us up in sand nigger politics to this day.

Yeah, I'm not saying that they even could've decided not to in the 70's. Things were already fucked because inflation from (((The Fed))) established in 1913.

I've seen a graph of inflation for the history of the US and it's basically flat right up until 1913. I wanted to find it again so I did a search and these are the first few results:

The retort would be that that's when The Fed started publishing data but it really gets my noggin' joggin'.

I couldn't find the chart I was looking for so this will have to do.
