seems everyone who is touting inflation is merely going by the formula of printing money = inflation..without even taking anything else into consideration.

genics, i think you need to take basic economic lessons if you want to debate this further.

as far as i can see every person i speak to who is seriously knowledgeable on the situation is saying deflation, it is only those with a loose understanding of economics crying about inflation..not gona happen.

As far as I can see every person you speak to who is saying deflation you decide is seriously knowledgeable on the subject, and every person you speak to who says inflation you decide must have a loose understanding of economics.

ok..so i guess irving fisher needs a lesson to, or are you just going to ignore that bit completely, to go with your well rounded argument?

well tbh no one outside t2w i talk to has said inflation, also i appear to be the only one here actually backing up my opinion with some good theory and data. As for the title its self, the answer is no..Wiemar hyperinflation couldn't happen again due to reasons i already posted...but seeing i dont know anything..i guess it will!
