Number Go Down
Book •
Number Go Down is an essay by Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers that reframes deflation as evidence of productive innovation rather than economic malaise.
The piece critiques fiat-driven inflation, explaining how monetary expansion distorts price signals, redistributes purchasing power, and encourages malinvestment.
It contrasts entrepreneurial, investment-driven reductions in prices with destructive credit-deflation spirals caused by collapsing unsound credit systems.
The essay advocates for sound money that allows productivity gains to manifest as falling prices, making progress visible and preserving real savings.
It has been serialized in two parts and is central to the podcast episode's reading and commentary.
