Ok make any kind of verifiable prediction about this and we will see if it happens or not.

Download taco Bell or McDonald's app. what is the current price for 400 calories? Mine is $1.30, in February this was $1. For stock info, look it up. Not sure where to get historical real estate prices, I'm just looking for a second property and everything is at least 10% higher than in February as you need to offer more than the selling price in this economy.

  Ok make a prediction about the "currency collapsing" and we will see. An actual prediction of the value of the currency not just a remark about prices seeming unusually high to you personally.

    I run a website that tracks food costs. Not sure if you are looking for Data or a psychic. I do the former.

      Ok why do you believe this if you can't make one verifiable prediction that it will happen? Will it happens tomorrow? In 20 years? In 5 months? It's just a feeling you have that isn't backed by data. I can't really ever disprove this because you're not really making any claim. This is every FED conversation on HN. People totally believe hyperinflation is "just around the corner" but it never happens only standard normal levels of inflation always within FED projections. What's your website BTW?

        Efficiency is everything. Give it a Google. Also, why are you discounting the last 100 years of federal reserve policy? We obviously had greater than 10x inflation. Is 30% inflation in 8 months not considered hyperinflation? My kids bank account is 30% less valuable now. I'm not going to fight over definitions that 30% inflation isn't enough to be considered hyperinflation.

        That's just being silly.

I'll play. It will be possible to buy large amounts of crude oil without owning USDs by 2026.

  I mean this wouldn't necessarily mean a collapse, but I really applaud the relative specificity and reasonableness of this claim. Still don't think it will happen.
