Even if the presses had to go all day and night and produced triple digit inflation bank depositors will be paid.

What happened to prices during the Great Depression? Did they go up or down? I know a big problem was that the banks failed, and many people lost their accounts, so for them it didn't matter what the prices were.

Do you thus think that a crash this time might be met with hyperinflation? It's an important question. For example, if real estate plunges (deflation) at the onset of a crash, it would be better to have cash on hand to buy some up. On the other hand, if hyperinflation would occur at the start of a crash, it would be better to buy real estate now, before that happens.
