The Market and Deflation

Day 1,615, 21:43 • Published in USA USA • by Kendra Barger

This is a response to RockFan's article titled "An Introduction/ Deflation" that he posted in his Newspaper Anomie and Entropy.

As RockFan pointed out in his article prices in the market are deflating. He pointed toward company owners as the culprit and several in the comments pointed toward the admins that control the bots that are supposed to be keeping the market stable. I partially agree with all of them, but they over looked one factor that I cannot my self over look with out going hystarical.

Part of our economic problems are tied into the extremely high wage for the employee to, in order for most of us to compete with the 250+ wage range we have to lose money in our companies. If you have 8+ companies this might work because you can cut into the profits of the other companies, but for those of use with less than 8 it doesn't work. If you have to cut into profits to pay your employees then you end up having less money to buy stuff off the market, less buying off the market, the lower prices go and the wages still go up.

I remember back when the max wage you could get even if you where a Q5 worker was 70 dollars, that I can keep up with, but $275 for one days wage is insane since just about everyone above the character level of 10 make enough food to cover that and part of their fighting and the ones that don't make that in their own companies can purchase it for or less $5 on the market. So where is the other $270 that people are getting paid right now going, because it is obviously not going back into the market.

I know for a fact the top 20 on the job market are hosting $250+ wages if each of them has 10+ Employees that is $50,000+ that is being paid in wages with only about 2% of that going back into the market so where is the rest going as it apparently isn't going into their own companies or they wouldn't have to get jobs. Those of us who have multiple companies usually take low paying $1-$5 jobs to help each other out, but who is getting all this extra money and where is it going because it isn't going where it supposed to.
