The Price of Tomorrow

Why Deflation is the Key to an Abundant Future

Jeff Booth

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.
