In 'The Price of Tomorrow,' Jeff Booth argues that technological progress is driving a natural deflationary force in the economy, which is being countered by government and central bank interventions through money printing and debt creation. Booth contends that our current economic systems, built on debt and inflation, are unsustainable and will lead to increased polarization and economic trouble if not adjusted. He advocates for embracing deflation and restructuring our economic frameworks to harness the abundance that technology can bring. The book covers a broad range of topics including the impact of technology on job markets, equality, and societal stability, and it concludes with a call to action for policymakers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs to adapt to these new economic realities.
In this book, Milton and Rose Friedman argue that free-market principles are more effective than government intervention in achieving economic prosperity and personal freedom. They critique the explosion of laws, regulations, agencies, and spending in Washington, highlighting how these have eroded freedom and undermined affluence. The book provides examples of how free markets have succeeded in various historical contexts, such as Hong Kong and the United States before the Great Depression, and contrasts these with the failures of centralized planning in countries like India. The authors also propose remedies for various economic and social issues, including education, inflation, and consumer protection, advocating for a minimalist economic policy and greater personal freedom[1][2][5].
