Bitcoin should rocket when hyper inflation comes.

Oh wait, Bitcoin has been rocketing up since it was invented.

Heavy debt load companies should do well in hyper inflation, right? Paying back their debt is easier with inflated dollars. Maybe AT&T?

there are some fallacies in this. machines are doing more and more of the work. I guess i am a luddite but I watched the workings of a hummous factory on tv show today and i was impressed by the degree of automation .Once the raw ingredients were all added everything was done my machines. the mixture was automattically poured into containers and sealed the containers were moved and the next batch was poured sealed and moved. I was solicited to invest in a company that makes robots that provide security for your surroundings. they move around and provide 24 hour video surveillance. i believe the cost of human labor in stuff we use is going down not up and will continue to do so unless we have minimum wage increases and requirement on companies to manpower hours per year. we can all see that the cost of accumulating knowledge is really getting cheaper if you dont need to pay for a diploma. you can probably learn just about anything on line for free. if you are motivated enough. My food costs are going down since i stopped going out much to eat. I went out for valentines day had an upscale burger and truffle fries. my wife had a drink. burgers were about $13 a piece . truffle fires were $7.50 . Her drink was $9.50. I make the same meal at home it might run $7, And look how much we are all saving not paying any commissions on stock trades! that probably will not last.
