But that will lead to deflation - {{{{Shiver}}}}. Is it not better to have inflation a la the 1970's rather than deflation a la the 1930's

Nope. Deflation is only bad for those people in debt. If we as a country would learn to save, people would welcome cheaper prices. Deflation is a natural result of capitalism. It's central banks that screw things up.
