GST, let's say you're right that the US dollar declines significantly vs. the currencies of our trading partners.

This would result in higher import prices. Would this also increase domestic incomes? Maybe in export industries but on the whole it would be a negative. Wouldn't this cause a squeeze on consumers?

Seems like import price inflation added to a high consumer debt load will accentuate the potential of a debt collapse.
