you mean somewhere like zimbabwe trying this? It would be particularly tough since they have 1000% monthly inflation or some other insanity.
i don't think zimbabwe has enough control on their economy to pull this off.
- quadhome 16y agoZimbabwe doesn't have a currency anymore. They gave up and went to nationally accepting the dollar (USD), pula (Botswana), or rand (SA). Helped things a lot. :-)
