“Print how? They have to outsource manufacturing their currency, and nobody will take the job because the money is worthless.”

Yes. They ran into this problem just about a year ago. Maybe Iran will use some of our $158 billion that Obama gave them to pay the printers.

I bought three of them a couple of years ago for about $10 apiece. Shortly afterward they started "honoring" them again and the price went to pennies. I am DEFINITELY not the guy to talk to about arbitrage.

*** “The one hundred trillion dollar Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe list for on E-Bay? 30 cents” ***

They must be gouging over at Amazon ... they are listed at $60 to $70 each

I would buy a stack of them for $.30 each ... just to send them to my Lib Relatives

I wish I had picked some up when they were a few dollars each. Maybe the price will crash like Beanie Babies.

Socialism will make you rich!

Note how the illustration on this 100 quadrillion note looks a lot like a pile of excrement!

Venezuela will have a hard time following suit, Zimbabwe has done so well once China started backing it! China has said adios to Venezuela & Maduro (mostly)!

Not as much so as the Strasser brothers and the others of the Schwarze Front crowd. The nationalist wing reduced the socialist influence in 1934. Cleaned up some of the homosexuals at the same time.

One of the first problems that the Weimar Republic faced was Hyperinflation. Money became so worthless that children could play with stacks of it. People's savings were wiped out causing widespread discontent and civil unrest.

Fun for the kids--until the food and fuel supply ran out.

Then the paper money was burned for heat--and the poor dog ended up in the stewpot.
