Ok so, these 3 guys have 3 different approaches to inflation or deflation debate.
1. Mike Shedlock aka. "Mish"
Believes that there will first be a period of deflation, but after that inflation. Believes the problem is that the money is just sitting in the bank's balance sheets and no credit is being created.

2. Peter Schiff
Believes that FED can and WILL create as much inflation as is necessary to replace the credit lost. Also believes that the fed can have absolute control over the situation. In the end he believes there could even be hyperinflation if US continues deficits.
Difference between him and mish is, I think he is saying that the credit is actually going to government (bonds?). And thus will create inflation.

3. Robert Precher.
Believes the Credit contraction will cause deflation, and the FED, without changes in the system is powerless to really do anything about it.
