There is a lot of discussion here at SS from the point of view of the fascism and decline of the USA's housing and economy and it's effects. Some parts of the world will be affected only marginally and many countries are attempting to distance themselves from an 'American effect'.
What's the view on the effect on Australia once the US dollar is devalued?
I'm assuming a devaluation of 10 percent (mainly because they've denied they'd do that and it wouldn't cause too much international drama) and perhaps late 2012 a devaluation of say 25%. This would put their debt into a 'manageable' range, and a further devaluation down the line could clear the problem area. It's a logical solution and history supports powers taking this approach.
Opinions?
p.s. I don't see hyperinflation in their future. A fascist state has many solutions for hyperinflation.
