Interesting stuff, Mish. Personally I'm on the "deflation for G7" side of the spectrum, but not violently so. I've seen Wiemar mentioned a few times on this thread; while Wiemar did inflate like a MoFu, what ultimately solved their problem was a regime change to one that was willing to default on much of the debt. This would seem to support your basic scenario.

I used to think a return to the gold standard was virtually impossible, but after further consideration I've slid over a bit into the "could happen - but won't make a damn bit of difference" camp. If there is a return to the gold standard, one thing is for sure: private individuals holding gold will be well and truly f'ed.
