But first think back to the Weimar Republic, when hyperinflation was rampant, and Deutschmarks were printed like they were going out of fashion. There were 1 billion mark notes, workers were paid twice daily and they had to take wheelbarrows to work to carry the money home in. So, in case of hyperinflation, one answer is to setup a wheel barrow factory :) Read on: "What would happen if these "foreigners" showed up in the US and started buying things with their dollars? Suppose Big Float calls home. This has happened more than once. On August 15, 1971 U.S. President Richard Nixon "closed the gold window." As a result, foreigners perceived dollars losing value because they were no longer redeemable for gold. Chiefly because of this, a wave of foreign-held dollars came home in the late 1970's and early 1980's. Overseas dollars started showing up here in the uS in the late 1980s as well. It was during this period when the Japanese bought-up such American icons as Pebble Beach, MGM, etc. with some of these formerly expatriated dollars. Americans at the time didn't like this much -- but, well, afterall, the "foreigners" were just trading "dollars" back to us "for stuff they wanted later." www.usagold.com And for some music Are you Makin' Any Money (www.redhotjazz.com), Paul Whiteman and his Orchestra, 1933	Terry Porritt (14)
