How exactly do you get "real goods" without manufacturing them? Or did you mean hard assets?

'Real economy (manufacturing) completely collapses during hyperinflation as it becomes more profitable to "invest" in real goods instead of manufacturing anything' What an incredibly profound statement. I've thought the same thing the past 6-12 months about the relationship between the coming depression in new home construction and the reflation in existing real property now way below replacement cost in much of the country that will take hold on the back side of the current inventory/foreclosure crisis.. Once assets reflate like 1975-78 then manufacturing/new construction starts coming back..
