I am going out on a limb with this one, although history will back me up:

For the last ten years, I have heard threats of hyperinflation from those I respect, including Ron Paul. True, Helicopter Ben Bernanke is also pro-inflation, but why has it not occurred yet?

Three reasons:

First, the ability to control the markets has improved exponentially since electronic transactions are the order of the day. This level of micro-control permits the banking oligarchy to literally produce money in real-time, and thus creates the illusion of stability. "Money" can be instantly shifted and allocated before any repercussions.

Second, even with all the hype, silver and gold have been sufficiently marginalized to the point that they are not valid currencies, combined with the fact that upwards of 90% of all financial transactions are conducted electronically, which is steadily eliminating cash. The full transition to an electronic currency will come long before any price inflation is realized. To those outside the FRN system, inflation is the least of our concerns. This is survival mode.

Thirdly, instead of printing more money for the masses, electrons will instead be transferred to the military contractors and .gov operatives who will greatly benefit from the impending World War.
Historically, war serves as the best distraction from economic calamity, while at the same time physically removing the strongest and bravest men to a foreign battlefield. "Over There," is not just a song from WW1, it is the tyrants' perennial solution for dealing with the threat of domestic unrest.

Don't worry about hyper-inflation. Just focus on survival preps.

Even so, come Lord Jesus.
