#3 There is a whole lot of debt in the world which can not be repaid. It must either be written off or inflated away. Either way the ultimate loser is the one who had saved up (invested) his excess productivity rather than consuming it some way. NO investments can be totally safe - either you'll lose to inflation, or to taxes, or to 'nationalization', or... the end result is the money can only come from those who have it.
