It's such a bad system when the logic follows the other path too. "I should buy a car now because it's only likely to get more expensive, while my income stagnates"

yes that's the entire point, to make money move(also known as an economy), instead of having money hoarders that just hold money for no goal and so does nothing for anyone.

Oh wait, that's what's happening right now as the flow of the economy goes into the glorified hoarders of the top 1% and the real economy is rotting from the inside out.

Tax the rich hard and make the money move again into the real economy.
