Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1469636You will have enough to worry about feeding your family and fighting off other trying to do the same. Ya know I think it's funny that in Patriots, lights out, one second after, they are worried about paying cash for their houses or retreats. Do they really think the bank is going to come and foreclose on houses when TSHTF? Too funny. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1476503We all know the story, in Germany during the depression, a woman left a basket full of money outside of a store, and she returned to find the money there, but the basket was stolen. So if my rent is $1000 a month, and the dollar is now worth 1 cent - what do I pay my landlord, or my mortgage company or my car loan? Will they still accept what is essentially 1000 pieces of useless paper with George Washington's face on it as monthly payment? They would have no choice as the contract is in dollars.... But if the dollar collapses all the banks fold and it becomes survival of the fittest... Get a big stick and stock up on food if any of the SHTF come to pass it will be 18-24 months of crazy times then simply go forward and stake your claim to the assists left behind by the 80-90% who will NOT survive.... This may seem morbid but it is the way it works.... "The world will not be destroyed by evil, it will be destroyed by the ones who do nothing to stop the evil."

Seriously, I've thought about this too, and although I have no clue what would actually happen, remember that the banks own your loans. Rent is a different story... that's up to your landlord. Maybe they'll let you live there for free!! I doubt it though... Since the banks are too big too fail, I can see them persisting with the collection, per usual. The cycle continues of collecting our money, paying off their bribes/debts, lining their pockets and invading brown people's living space. Don't worry though, when the dollar is worthless and nobody can pay for anything, the banks will being the culling. It will be quick and painless. Like stepping on an ant. BUT FEAR NOT!! They'll get theirs when they can't pay THEIR debts. Which seems to be coming sooner than we think. But we will be dead by then. |

Other than oil and other imports, the relative value of the dollar has no effect on what we pay for things. Inflation does, we are currently bordering on deflation. Concerned about dollar, make sure you don't depend overly much on the price of oil. |
oniongrass User ID: 1193082 United States 07/21/2011 10:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | NO PROBLEM! You will just start paying in YEN! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1476274Dont be ridiculous. You will pay it in Ameros. If you can get USD, you will pay in that. That is the benefit of inflation, the reason Bernanke as well as the European Central Bank are printing like crazy. The debts become more affordable as there is inflation. If you social security becomes worthless because of dollar inflation (and it won't because there's an inflation clause in it; you 'll get more dollars) you house payment becomes trivial too. Truly, inflation is the best answer out there. Creditors get screwed. The debt is unpayable (as I've been saying longer than Ron Paul has.) With sufficient inflation, it becomes manageable. That debt includes social security but it also includes treasury bonds we owe the Chinese, and also your mortgage payment shrinks in real terms. This way our foreign creditors share the pain with us, and house debtors have a chance. The alternatives are not paying Treasury coupons (I bet that won't happen) or cutting domestic programs (what the "Gang of Six" and other alleged patriots want.) If we cut domestic programs, we'll die of debt deflation. . DON'T VAX, PROPHYLAX! ____________ There is no anger in Me: If one offers Me thorns and thistles, I will march to battle against him, And set all of them on fire. But if he holds fast to My refuge, He makes Me his friend; He makes Me his friend. (Isaiah 27:4-5) |

Hypocrisy User ID: 1451219 United States 07/21/2011 10:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If you have a fixed rate on your car loan, nothing will happen. If you don't, then yea you're screwed lol. If you have a contract for a rental agreement, again nothing will happen. Utilities will probably sky rocket even more than they do now, unless it's fixed in your rental agreement, but when you renegotiate, your rent will go up.....but doesn't everything go up in price anyway? Seems like a convenient excuse for a money grab, these scare tactics & chicken little syndrome. |

Well the truth is they want the Dollar to collapse this is the only way they can justify a new World Currency, which will probably be on a debit like card so once the Dollar Collapse Im pretty sure they will usher in a new Currency right away as they already have it set up just waiting for the final blow of the dollar ,they have been trying to destroy the Dollar for quite some time with all this printing money, so what will happen is the money you have they will give you so much on the dollar maybe 10 percent as inflation will go down and you wont have as much money but every thing will cost way less so it will equal out. |
