A drug-addicted thief, for example, having invested nothing in terms of time and labor to acquire the item or commodity they steal, the value of the item or commodity means nothing other than the amount of illegal drugs the item or commodity can be exchanged for. Whereas to a worker, they must calculate exactly how many hours they must labor to afford a car payment in order to drive to work. Inflation diminsihes the value of their labor, and increase the number of hours the worker must spend on the job to afford the car payment, and diminishes so-called "discretionary spending".
