Who could have foreseen, much less predicted this?

We used to be cheap but we went on the GeeDeePee maxxing regime as well, with the neoliberal and liberal reforms of the last few decades.

A cargo cult make believe daydreaming party. They think they can play pretend air defences or industrial bases into existence.

>I mean, China now hold roughly 70% of the world's industrial output, but at least the US could help producers get ahead a little. But no. It's full-on service economy retardation. $100 haircuts are straight into muh GDP.
On a sufficiently long timespan, everyone ends up agreeing with me on everything.

>The use of specie (physical gold/silver) is exactly what the declining Roman empire did NOT do.
You don't grasp cause and effect. Why did you think they debased the currency? To enable financial profitability. It's the same story every time.
The money for financial profits does not exist and the only way it can be made to appear to is by debasing the legal tender. By adding fictional amounts sound money by reducing the soundness of the money.
>They removed the silver from the coins.
Which is a form of issuance of fiat currency (issuance of fictional legal tender).
>They turned their currency from real money into worthless fiat,
>then they passed price control laws (Diocletian) to try in vain to combat the inflation caused by their ever increasing supply of fiat caused.
And why do you think that keeps happening and why will the next time be different?
>Real money (commodity money) cannot be counterfeited.
>Gold in particular is very difficult to fake due to it's high density (19.3g/cm3) yellow color, malleability and resistance to acids and corrosion.
>Silver is not as distinctive, but is stil readily identifiable, even with low tech, particularly if in the form of coins where one has known good specimens.
Makes capitalism (for financial profit operated economy) impossible. Will be replaced with receipts or claims for it, to enable unbacked receipts or claims to fictional gold or silver to be issued. Which is what happened before, every single time.
>Roman inflation could only happen because the STOPPED using real commodity money and went to a fiat based system.
Yes. And without perpetual currency debasement there is no capitalism.
>you don't yet realize that your dream of an anticapitalist future will end in a nightmare horrorshow, like all collectivist attempts at utopia end up.
You don't even know what capitalism (for-financial-profit operated economy) is or how it actually works (national self-cannibalisation).
Financial profits are a jewish lie.

>You'll always run into a problem of limited resources and having to redistribute them somehow and people wanting to just get something for nothing
Capitalism does not solve the problem of finite resources or the problem of allocation of resources.
In fact, capitalism (especially laisez faire capitalism) is the enemy of the real economy. Which is to say, the economy of making real things and doing real things.
This is plainly observable if you look at the deindustrialising and depopulation trajectories of all developed capitalist countries.
I know, I know. You think this is bollocks because imports exist and because you think goods appear out of nothing on store shelves.
>Until we get infinite resources,
Retarded take the likes of which I expect from a brainwashed eastern jew-roped-peon.
If capitalism was an efficient way of allocating resources or directing economic activity, capitalist countries would only produce more and better real things over time, instead of fewer, shittier and less. As things actually stand, capitalist countries can't even keep their native populations from going extinct and instead elect to replace them with imported niggers and shitskins. Just like they import everything they used to be able to make domestically and did make domestically.
>infinite energy and infinite zero cost labor this will always be a problem
You don't understand anything. Pure retardation. As expected from eastern jew-roped-peon flags such as yours.

Muh (mostly fictional) fiat currency is wealth, not merely just claims on wealth.
Muh inflation is wealth creation.
Muh GeeDeePee is economic activity and not just (mostly fictional) fiat currency swirling around.
Muh GeeDeePee growth is economic growth and not inflation, scarcity or poverty.
Muh money in the bank is reel.
The more I pay for things, the richer it means I am.

It's legalised fraud/counterfeiting. It's not rocket science.
