Why Cant We Just Print The Money We Need Instead Of Borrowing by hadex90(m): 8:14pm On Mar 02, 2017
So a friend of mine who is always criticising the system of government ask me this question yesterday. although am not an economist but i try my best to explain to him from the little knowledge of high school economics that i have but he seems not to understand.

so i am throwing this question to the economist in the house.

Answer this simple question... Why can't United States which is the world power and the country with the highest debt in the world not produce the monies they need all the time.... My brother you can't flood the market with excess money.... That's one of the reasons though

The Reason Why They Can't Print What They Need Is That The Money Needed As At The Time Of Borrowing Is Usually Need Asap Not In A Long Tym.

What Did You Explain To Your Friend From Your Little Knowledge Of Economics And Why Should You Be Economics Itself And Not An Economist?

Again, Which High School Did You Attend?

What we need is hard currency ie dollars. Even if you print naira you still need to convert it to dollars. With the current exchange rate how much naira do you need to get 15-20 billion dollars we need to come out of recession. That is why the emphasis on export to increase inflow of hard currency

I have little time to explain this to you now but picture this analogy:

What do you think will happen if we all could just print the money we need on daily basis to meet our daily needs?

I mean, the barber could print his, the manager could print his, the pepper seller could print hers, and so on and so forth. Will anyone need to hustle to get the money any longer? Your answer to this logic will help you further.

If we could print the money we need, other countries would be able to print theirs as they deem needed too. If that happens, money becomes paper and worthless.

Get it?

sorry that was a mistake. thanks for the correction though. concerning the answer i gave, i tried explaining inflation and deflation with emphasis on the quantity of money in circulation etc
