$100 Billion Bank Note
you know your economy is crap when you get paid like 5 of these. |
2.2 million % inflation. Experts say it's higher than that. I can't even begin to imagine what a shit hole that is. How is that even possible?

In Germany, between January 1922 and November 1923, the average price level increased by a factor of about 20 billion.
It's possible in times of crisis, where the cost of buying things skyrockets while your ability to buy things plummets, especially when considering imported goods. |
What a shitty country, I can't believe that guy is still in power. How can he look at himself in the mirror and sleep at night. Does he not see that he's running his country into the ground?

They now have a 500B note, which pays for half a loaf of bread. You know your economy is fucked when your currency has an expiration date.
It could be worse. When Hungary's economy hit its low point post-WWII, the exchange rate between USD and the Pengo was measure in x10^30. When the new currency was produced, the entire Hungarian economy was worth less than 10 US cents. |

I'm sure he believes that Zimbabwe's problems are entirely due to other people, and that things would be even worse if it weren't for him. |
I want one of those bills, I don't know why I just do. I feel so bad for those people.

I have a bit of a touchy question: Would it be acceptable to allow Africa to sink? What I'm getting at is that problems like this, tribal genocide, AIDS, overpopulation, and a myriad of other problems that nothing short of all out war and restructuring will fix, is it time to stop all aid and outreach programs to Africa and let them[Africans] burn it to the ground as they seem hellbent on doing?

So if you have $10 in Zimbabwe, you're one of the richest people in the world.
Zimbabwe - more fucked up than Nigeria. |
