What do you mean? Government cant print az many cash as they want? You need to read more
There are a lot of requirement to create more cash, one of the requirement is gold reserve
So you cant just print cash as you wish
You don't have to be a genius to see that what most countries are doing..
How do they even buy gold? Oh wait by printing more money.
I don't know about the other guy but as long as you are not living in the past, then you are wrong. Gold reserve is a thing of the past. If you haven't read about the Nixon Shock, then I suggest that you go ahead and do a quick search for it. In 1970s, Richard Nixon removed the requirement for gold reserve for people to print money. Nowadays, a lot of countries have tons of debts in major countries so they are left with no choice but to print money continuously. As you might probably notice, literally all of the goods and services (or simply commodities) have a rising price. You can often hear people saying that things are now more expensive than ever but the truth is, it's our money that has a problem. Since there's no more requirement for printing dollars or any other currency, the government can just print as much money as they want and never have to worry about it. And that simple action inflates our money. There's a lot of new money coming in, thus the value of it decreases.
So is the trust for USD finished? I want to say it "should" be finished right after the Nixon Shock but at that time they have no other choice but to continue using it since there was no other alternative for it. Now, we have bitcoins, and it's time for people to wake up to this truth that we shouldn't trust our fiat money as much as we are doing so right now.
