Quote from: Ludwig von Mises, Human Action 1949, p572

There is no means of avoiding the final collapse of a boom brought about by credit expansion. The alternative is only whether the crisis should come sooner as the result of voluntary abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of the currency system involved.

It is only much later when assets can no longer be effectively seized that government will turn on the printing press. Those in the know will have placed their funds in hard to seize assets prior to this time. The hum of the printing press will signal the start of hyperinflation.

There has never been and never will be hyperinflation on a global scale. Hyperinflation requires the ability to run from a low-tier currency regime to a more stable currency regime.

That is why global deflation via bezerk G20 coordinated government asset seizure is so dangerous. This leads to a Dark Age and it is very difficult to get out of.

Make sure you understand this point. It is a critical point at this juncture.

3. While governments claim to be mad at the NSA, behind the curtain there is legal swapping going on. Foreign nations are using the NSA to gather data for taxes on their own citizens while denying they spy on their own people yet get that info from the NSA. In return, the NSA allows the British to spy on Americans so the NSA can deny it is doing so domestically and then swaps the info. Germany and Switzerland also participate in this domestic spying for taxes.

4. The G20 agreement to swap all financial info to hunt down international capital is all about getting tax revenue to sustain the debt structure. There is no long-term planning here and they cannot see that they are creating the next MAJOR GREAT DEPRESSION to make all previous downturns loop like speed-bumps. I reported that even I could not wire $15,000 for expenses to Asia in advance. HSBC refused to accept the wire for they could not guarantee I had no ownership in the account the wire was directed. I had to write a check. You cannot even do business because these people are hunting all capital and PRESUME any transaction over $3,000 is to hide money not for commerce.

5. Government will not collapse. This early stage will be about fighting hard to sustain their power. War is part of that. International War takes place either to fill the treasury with the spoils of war and or power as was in the good old days (Putins ideas), or the more modern version to act as a distraction to deflect civil unrest (USA to come) and to unleash the dogs of war to settle old scores (China v Japan, North v South Korea, Russia v West).
