Go go hyperinflation.
Clearly the answers are two fold --
1. Prints BIGGER bills
2. Confiscate more white owned farms for socialist redistribution.
After all, we all know the only reason socialism or communism fails is because it's never been REALLY tried hard enough.

Well, on the bright side Zimbabwe, at least you're not under the heel of those evil white men anymore.

Aren't they expected to hit a 1000% inflation rate? A tad dysfunctional, if you ask me.

When currency notes are cheaper than a single sheet of toilet paper you should know it is time to move.

Mr Mbima said queues regularly formed at his checkout as staff struggled to count stacks of currency. $130,000 for a single loaf of bread, and 1000% inflation. A year from now, how much? $1,300,000? I wonder how long it will take the economy to completely collapse.
If I were white and living in Zim, I'd get out before Mugabe builds a coliseum to entertain the jobless and hungry masses.

And yet, a silver US dime will purchase the same loaf of bread today that it would have a few years ago.
Ahhhhh, the power of honest money.
