There is no question that hyper inflation is worse than deflation. With deflation, your reserves go further. With hyper-inflation, your savings are wiped out.

And even those who are head over heels in debt, and see their debts wiped out by hyperinflation, are still stuck in communities where there is suddenly little, if anything, to buy, because the transport industry is unable to function.

Having a surplus of food ect to trade who knows what one could find and get on the marget.
