Hey, Bizarro World! That's like sticking your head in for a few moments through a dimensional vortex...seeing water running uphill, cats living with dogs, etc.

Makes sense to me. I'm personally looking forward to a deflationary Keynesian endgame. Those trillions in debt the Feds have racked up will start looking pretty nasty when they have to pay them back in increasingly valuable dollars.

They will either have to tax us into the ground or radically alter the scope of government.

Probably both.

Third possibility: A government has the power to repudiate its debts. The Spanish government did it about half a dozen times during its spiral out of great-power status. And continued to find takers for its instruments, incredibly!
