I wonder what happens when the government runs out of money?

Or print so much that the dollar’s value dwindles to nothing?

Jah. I concur, effendi. Only here's what disturbs my sleep. On the economics blogs everyone insists that the real threat is debt deflation and that those of us who sense an oncoming bout of super-hyper inflation are lunatics. Here would be an example:

We won’t have to wonder much longer.

Well I have a homebased soap business that has been on the fritz since some serious family issues left their mark on our family. Maybe Barney can help me out and him and I can corner the market on SOAP!!

I am SOOOOO sick of these loonies.

We fund the government, and we will know the answer to that sooner than we want to.

The cities starve and the countryside survives.

You answered you own question, the fed is printing it as fast as the little old press will run. Five dollars for a bottle of Coke is just around the corner.

Wat? He'll just make up the difference with a tax on prostitution!

Its called a currency collapse and you get wiped out as nobody will take your money because it has no value.

Buy gold unless they decide to confiscate it (as in the FDR years) or Swiss Francs.

Its like musical chairs. When the music stops, you need to be out of dollars and safely into appreciating assets or you lose.

I believe they are already printing lots of money. Inflation is coming.

When is someone going to have the courage to shut off the spigot? I'm sitting in front of my t.v. yelling, "STOP HELPING!".

THE GOVERNMENT WILL NEVER RUN OUT OF MONEY AS LONG AS IT HAS SUCKERS LIKE US WILLING TO PAY...

Sounds like it is way past time for another tea party...

Setting the stage for total collapse of capitalism as we have known it. Retirees can kiss their a$$ goodbye - investments will be zero just like zer0bama. THEN WE WILL ALL DEPEND ON A BENOVOLENT GOVERNMENT TO TAKE CARE OF US FROM WOMB TO TOMB. That is the goal of the RAT party. Everything is falling into place at breakneck speed - zer0bama isn't even in office yet and he is directing Twiddle Dum and Twiddle Dee over there on the Hill.

That happened about 3 years ago. We're there now.
