The unprecedented increase in the money supply caused by goverment spending will send us into hyperinflatio

Not likely anytime soon, it takes a "special" set of circumstances for Hyper-inflation to take hold. Great loss of trust in the G'ment, and that is not in the cards anytime soon.

However we could see a major Depression later this year or next year. The Stock market appears to have rolled over and we have entered a stock market decline, how deep and how fast - who knows, we could have an indication by June/July/August

Russian and Ukrainian officials gave their most upbeat assessments yet on Sunday of progress in their talks on the war in Ukraine, suggesting there could be positive results within days.

Looks like a BIG UP day in the making for Monday, could be a good time to start shorting

You overestimate how much trust the people have in the USG, especially one led by Biden and Harris. All of our institutions were damaged by the Russia hoax. Unpunished election fraud including a stolen Presidential election have caused over one-half of the public to believe that we have an illegitimate President in the WH. And the unfair treatment of the J6 political prisoners by DOJ and Congress will become more apparent. And we have had over 2 million illegal aliens come across our open southern border in the past year. They will compete against Americans and legal residents for jobs and benefits.

The increasing pressure of rising inflation affecting not only gas and food, but all goods and services, will cause dissatisfaction and possible civil disorder depending on how long it continues. Savings and IRA's are being affected, which especially hurts retirees.

What caused inflation in the Weimar Republic? In order to pay the striking workers the government simply printed more money. This flood of money led to hyperinflation as the more money was printed, the more prices rose. Prices ran out of control, for example a loaf of bread, which cost 250 marks in January 1923, had risen to 200,000 million marks in November 1923.
