> To get rich you need capital. But that is hard to get in a deflationary economy

Believe me, it's nearly impossible to get capital in an inflationary economy so I don't understand this point. At least in a deflationary economy, it's equally difficult for everyone. In an inflationary economy, proximity to the source of inflation confers an advantage for some (Cantillon effect) so it's unequal and unfair.
