<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1111284, member: 66&quot;]As far as I know Zimbabwe has not been on the US dollar, they simply allowed the people to start accepting foreign currency rather than Zimbabwe dollars.&nbsp; That has given them the problem of prices in one currency, payments in another, and maybe getting change in a third.&nbsp; (Not unlike the early years in this country.)&nbsp; Now they are scrapping their currency and the others and just going over completely to the US dollar.&nbsp; This should help break the hyperinflation because they can&#039;t just keep increasing the amount of dollars in circulation as they could their own.&nbsp; They would have to buy the US dollars from our treasury.&nbsp; If they have no money to buy more they can&#039;t dump more into circulation.&nbsp; Plus as shaky as we see the US dollar, to the Zimbabwe people it&#039;s as solid as a rock.&nbsp; It has worked in the past too.&nbsp; Ecuador didn&#039;t have hyperinflation but it was bad.&nbsp; They adopted the dollar, we shipped them Sac dollars and their economy stablized.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
