    Hyperinflation is typically caused when you’re printing money to buy foreign currency as a means of servicing foreign debt as was the case in Weimar era Germany.
    The increased supply lowers exchange rates, which in turn means you need to print more money.

    As long as you have free economic capacity domestically, spending money for it to be used won’t cause hyperinflation.
