There is no sense debating it, or worrying about it - it is coming.
And the only thing that will stop it, (or QE4, QE5 or whatever) is called "freegold". I don't like the name of it, as it sounds different than what it is, but it too is coming. It always does. You just need to go further back in history to see it.
