The Shrunken Dollar. What's the corellation with Real Estate Investing?

[Patrick D.]

Hello everyone,

I am a newbie on this sight and fairly new to real estate investing.

With the dollar shrinking and the government spending at alarming rates, what does the future hold in real estate?

If our government does not stop this crazy spending, and cut the 12 trillion dollar deficit (it does not seem they are slowing down anytime soon) the dollar is going to be worthless and our country will be on the brink of bankruptcy.

Just looking for some thoughts on this in regards to real estate.
