<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Argento, post: 577748, member: 17165&quot;]Inflation will no doubt be experienced but it won&#039;t get as bad as the doom &amp; gloomers would have you believe.&nbsp; The prime reason inflation won&#039;t go hyper is very simple to grasp.</p><p><br /></p><p>Inflation has the secondary of effect of decreasing the value of debt.&nbsp; In a country like the USA where the populous is largely indebted -- and real wealth has been built atop of that debt -- inflation poses a very real threat to debt interests (i.e. bankers) and since the bankers are running the show (and money) via our Federal Reserve system you can guarantee that they won&#039;t allow a flooded dollar market to essentially erase the value of their debt assets through inflation.&nbsp; As soon as there is even a hint that real infation is on the horizon, the Fed will contract the money supply so quick your head will spin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, I promised you this would be easy to grasp so, to simplify: if inflation becomes so bad that you earn like $3,000/hr. (i.e. real hyper-inflation scenario) what does that mean for your $1200 mortgage or $600 car payments?&nbsp; To you it means you own them both, free and clear, with damn near zero effort.&nbsp; To the bankers who hold the notes on those items, it means their assets are wiped out.&nbsp; In a country the size of the USA with as much debt as is held by US citizens, we&#039;re talking enormous, mind-boggling amounts of money.&nbsp; You&#039;d be a fool to believe the powers that be would ever allow inflation to threaten those assets.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, inflation will come but it won&#039;t be too big of a big deal.&nbsp; Maybe just enough to create some good theatrics, but little else.&nbsp; Deflation is a much bigger threat to people who are in debt and is a windfall to bankers who hold the notes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
