The plan to pay off debt (or at least make payments) is to increase inflation. This is a subtle way to pay off debt without "raising taxes", and it affects everyone. By inflating the currency, it becomes less valuable, which also has the effect of making debts less valuable.

My hedge against inflation was a 30 year mortgage. If inflation skyrockets, the value of my mortgage will plummet.
