Hey Saif. I'm reading the book Superabundance (based on your pod) and trying to square some some things. In that book they go on to show how a basket of 50 commodities is cheaper when priced in human time by around 70% over the last several decades.
Is this a counter to the thesis that inflation is stealing our time since it now requires much less time to acquire these commodities?
Thanks.
