$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('frankthetank', 'W')hen does the US start printing fake Euros/Rubles/Yen? I'm guessing the technology exists in the US to print all three almost perfectly... What do you think? Good way to inflate their currencies? Didn't the Nazis do this and the N. Koreans?
Just wondering.
Never, because they would get caught in pretty short order and the jig would be certainly up, no foreign banks or governments would buy any US Debt securities and those they do own would be dumped on the market collapsing the US economy immedietly, if not sooner!
Outside of a war, where you are trying to piss off your fellow countries, their is no justifiable reason for printing foreign currency unless you do so under contract for a foreign country.
