<p>[QUOTE=&quot;InfleXion, post: 1658450, member: 29012&quot;]Again, I am simply looking at history. Debt has been growing exponentially since we went off the gold standard. When debt grows exponentially and GDP grows linearly, if at all, the only possible outcomes are either hyperinflation or default. The only way for things not to pan out as I&#039;ve described would be for debt to be paid off by non-debt based money (gold and silver) or for government spending to be cut substantially. </p><p><br /></p><p>Any of these things could happen. However, if the money printing stops then the too big to fail banks will fail (since they require debt based money injections to remain solvent), and take down the $1.7 quadrillion derivatives bubble with them. If entitlements are cut sufficiently to reverse the debt trend then half of the nation will be below the poverty line. If gold and silver are to pay off the debt then the price per oz will need to rise accordingly to cancel out the debt. </p><p><br /></p><p>To answer your question, I am not 100% certain of the outcome. It is a matter of possibilities and probabilities, cause and effect. The available paths are clear. Any thinking person can make their own deductions as to what they think is more likely.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
