In our current inflationary system, the bulk of the power is granted to the business owners. Owners are free to bully their employees, refuse to give wage increases, and attack unions.
And employees are free to leave and find a job elsewhere. The job isn't the employee's, it's given to them by the business owners.
The job is taken by the employees.
With a deflationary system, the power is reversed. The employees can choose to decline wage decreases if they do not consider them fairleaving the owners to negotiate properly with the unions.
The employee can decide to decline a wage decrease, and the owners will just fire them. Especially if the business doesn't make enough money to afford them any more. The power is still will the one who owns the business, and gives the jobs.
The business can decide to decline a wage increase, and the employees will just leave.
Employees and owners are a symbiotic relationship. Neither can live without the other. The more dominant in the relationship depends on which one maintaining the status quo benefits (owners in inflationary economy, employees in deflationary one).
