There have been economic meltdowns in this last 50 years that have not resulted in deflation when the credit imploded. It seems to me as though one of the things that those situations had in common was that their currency lost major amounts of its value on the world stage at the same time.

NOT with these levels of consumer debt.
That in fact makes our situation worse than the experience in Japan. The game is up with US consumers representing about 70-80% of our economy.
