[quote:AlasBabylon:MV8xNTE0MzY5XzI0OTcxOTY4X0Q1OTY3NkY3] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1343978] Inflation to hyperinflation followed by deflationary collapse. [/quote] Exactly what happened in the Weimar Republic. We hear a lot about the runaway inflation in Weimar Germany... but little about the deflationary depression that followed. Germans lost their jobs, their homes and their lives [many of the homeless froze to death in the winter] not during the hyperinflation... but during the deflationary depression that followed. The USA is following a similar path. . [/quote]

So what's it gonna be. Eco-collapse---> inflation or deflation, print money to hell, or people just run out of money and stop buying shit? 1000 dollars for bread, or 50 dollars for a handgun? whats the scoop. Should I buy stuff now or wait till its all super cheap? Economists are pumpin out both theories, the inflation scenario is more popular, with our money printing-habits, but the deflation scenario could be entirely plausible if more money isn't printed. A bourgosie friend of my fathers said over dinner that the time it would be deflation. Really this is huge, does anybody have any idea which way it will go?
