Deuteronomy 25:15 in the Bible talks about honest weights and measures. Our current system is rotten and dishonest to the core.
The fact that the continual devaluing of money that is earned incentives spending today vs saving for something in the future. This is why we have homes built of match sticks and we wear clothing that wears out and drive cars that barely last. We live in a throw away culture because of spending.
If our money maintained it's purchasing power across time we could just save 10% over our lifetime, without the need for wreck less speculation and still be able to retire.
Today were all invested in things we don't understand in hopes just to keep up with our purchasing power in the future, only to retire and have a huge market
"You shall have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure, that your days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD your God is giving you. crash."
