According to Peter Bernholz, whenever you see a government borrow to cover 40% or more of its fiscal expenditures, it’s resulted in hyperinflation. Bernholz wrote about it extensively in his book Monetary Regimes and Inflation: History, Economic and Political Relationships.

The US has recently been as high as 44%.

Unless we see growth upwards of 3-4%, there is an almost 100% chance that we will see hyperinflation.

    Almost all the past cases have been where the borrowing has been in another currency. It seems that a country borrowing in its own currency and having some semblance of political and institutional stability can carry on the deficit game for a while.. ala Japan. Japan still hasn't seen any hyperinflation in a long time. Maybe it will eventually but its unclear when!
