"But then finally the masses wake up. They become suddenly aware of the fact that inflation is a deliberate policy and will go on endlessly. A breakdown occurs. The crack-up boom appears. Everybody is anxious to swap his money against "real" goods, no matter whether he needs them or not, no matter how much money he has to pay for them. Within a very short time, within a few weeks or even days, the things which were used as money are no longer used as media of exchange. They become scrap paper. Nobody wants to give away anything against them." ~ Ludwig von Mises

There's a buzzword that's been heavily used for ten or more years: "infrastructure".
I'm hoping to live to see government infrastructure come unglued and implode. The first breach to the walls of Leviathan will be the hordes who currently vote to legitimize the fraud. Once their numbers have been reduced to a small percentage of "eligibles", the gap will have been opened. The tanking of the US "dollar", along with most world currencies, will accelerate that happening.
This is all being enhanced by the free exchange of information with individuals like us on the internet. We are steadfastly (but gently, I hope) nudging the fence-sitters. "Hawk"'s article is an excellent example.
