不知道这篇文章对你理解一战后的德国恶性通胀有没有帮助:
And the government could not help realizing that the inflation was wiping out its burden of debt and would ease its financial problems.
Above all, it became an article of faith among the political leaders and most ordinary citizens that the inflation was really due to the burden of reparation payments imposed by the peace treaty. This meant, so the argument ran, that Germany would be stripped of its gold, foreign exchange and wealth; it would be bankrupt. Hence, the mark fell in value in terms of gold or dollars. This drop in the foreign exchange value of the mark was said to be the true reason for the inflation.

(那是个欠债还钱的问题,打败仗了,对方要价是德国把家底都倒空都还不起的价码,你把国家财富--纳税人的财富--赔出去了是因为战争赔款,不是德国通过通胀掠夺国民,是战胜国“掠夺”整个战败国)
