Erm...it's fine , you can just print the money, right ? At least that's what all the Economists keep saying , "money supply " . What could EVER go wrong with printing money to solve problems caused by money printing, right ?

@TayFx, Our time is up, when the vaccine comes out, and "everything is alright ". It's like a tsunami. First the water disappears. Start running. When you see the wave, it's already too late.

@TayFx, Yes, do it the german way, "print your way out of debt". There's a museum in Germany dedicated to that period. They had "emergency money2, when paper just couldn't get printed fast enough. Gambling cards, even tree bark, anything goes ! Now, we're civilised people, we'll have neat QR codes, on out phones, right ? :)))
@TayFx, I'll do you one over. There was a Portuguese guy, called Alves dos Reis, made the biggest con EVER. In 1926, he got the British company that printed the portuguese bank notes to print HIM money. The British were duped, thinking it was legit. For a few weeks, Portugal was filthy rich ! Until somebody noticed two bank notes had the same serial number. Two weeks later, we had a coup. Fifty years of Fascism ensued.
