What's this McCain monomania of yours, Cyber-Stalin? I speak my own thoughts: Actually, there is no monetary deflation in the country now (what we have is properly called 'disinflation', i.e., a small and falling rate of inflation)... but you'd better HOPE we never reach a true state of deflation because - although it can be a good thing for consumers - it's a VERY BAD THING for deficit-spending politicians... because it takes away their ability to inflate away the rising national debt - and forces them to actually face the consequences of their actions in a hard-money environment. Without the promise of inflation, lying politicians have no way to run-up evermore debt.
