Personally, I am not so bold to predict either outcome. Straight to hyperinflation or a credit implosion leading to deflation...either outcome is possible depending on how the administration reacts.

Also the fact that many things are inflating now, does not in any way invalidate the deflation argument. In a way it even supports it. Joe Six Packs are getting squeezed from every direction by inflation, but they are seeing little inflation benefit (no more house inflation, extreme lagging wage inflation).

As a result Joe Six Packs are getting pushed closer and closer to insolvency everyday (deflationary). Of course the wildcard is that the gov. can print all the Joe Six Packs back into play with a flick of a switch.

IMHO people would be well suited to accept both hyperinflation and deflation as possibilities and plan accordingly.
