In 1973-74 all stocks and many housing markets got killed..most builders went under..we all know what happened to cash after that..cash was far from king but was very useful buying on the quick dips of beaten down asset prices and was worth very little in purchasing power in buying your basic goods and services as the years went by

While housing and stocks may be killed, retail prices will not go down,in fact they will go up, due to a rapidly declining dollar.

You state that as a given when there are many example of prices that did not rise when the dollar went into a freefall.

You also assume a rapidly falling US$.

Those are two big assumptions and both could be wrong.
I bet at least one of those is wrong.
