Re: The only real way that any country can devalue its currency is by relative dilution! Simply print or create more cash than the real productive capacity of the country can justify, and do it faster than everyone else. Because all fiat currencies are measured relative to each other in the modern world, every attempt by one country to devalue becomes a moving target as the other currencies simply replicate the same devaluation procedure.... ...With energy and labour everything else can be created without fiat entering into the equation at all; money was created as a convenience to facilitate barter and trade; it is not wealth! The right to create and manipulate money by a select few has become the means by which otherwise non-productive individuals and organisations can parasitise the rest of society who actually produce all of the real worth. Superb Post!!
