Article says :

" If your income drops from $75,000 to $70,000 because the impact of declining purchasing power, that $500,000 [mortgage] gets more and more expensive. Yet if we have massive wage inflation (do you see this happening?) then that $500,000 won’t look so bad if your income jumps to $200,000 and your home is now valued at $700,000."

I don't see wages increasing right now. But after the dollar is trashed Weimar style, meaningless wage increases can easily happen. Who knows, we may even have the Amero introduced by then! :-)
