What would happen if the US government issued the "new dollar," worth five times the original?
I read that, as a method of dealing with inflation, some governments simply replace their currency as a sort of reset. Would this help with inflation now, or would that currency immediately inflate beyond control?
What if a new gold standard was made alongside the new currency, except with a more appropriate material? I've been told gold isn't worth enough relative to the US economy for a standard anymore.
