zimbabwe is quite honest about their schema, just keep printing day after night after day, as promised

argentina was also more honest, and far more straightforward: seal the border, gate the capital flight routes, declare bank holiday once every ten years, force conversion of foreign currency deposits to local money, force exchange of local money over a set amount into argentine sovereign debt denominated in local currency, and then, after such gang rape, add a zero to the local currency

the usa goes around and around, chase ubs for names to warn the tax rebels, drive folks to t-bills by letting lehman fall and citi wobble, yadayada and set t-bill rates to zero/negative, and then, hilariously, invites all to a party, to 'invest' their hunted money, and then, i am sure

to add a zero to the money by a whole lot of ways and means, and finally, insult to injury, before financial death, to tax the phoney gains

the argentine folks had to be herded into financial gulag camps

the usa folks just walk right on in

let us watch and brief and see how events work out on government-sponsored investment
