actually you can print cash. can and must sometimes. It's OK if the country economy is growing and new printed money are supported with new goods and services. No inflation in that situation.

This is equivalent to saying "it's ok to rob people if they still have enough to eat".  Note that in the growth and improved efficiencies paradigm everyone would be GAINING purchasing power and value if the extra weren't being printed.  Instead it's just "no inflation".  Hardly OK if you ask me.

In other words, just because your funbuck is worth the same as it was last year doesn't mean you weren't robbed blind.  It could have been worth 10 times that, but instead that value was transferred to blowing people up, cutting down forests, and building dumbass mcmansions.

While it is a good point, you simply cannot print off your debt. Printing a lot of money creates inflation, and if there's one thing you don't want as a country, it is inflation. This has happened to many countries before. Huge debt, print money, huge inflation problem. You really don't want this, really.
This is how the government manipulate their fiat by print it. Before we use fiat, people use gold as currency but it is not practically to carry. Then people agree to use banknote ( paper money)  as the representation of gold. So the amount of fiat that can be printing must be the same as the amount of gold. If government just print dollar as many as they want it will dangerous for the economy of the country.

It is not as good as you think when priting more dollars. The inflation is the main reason of that and it will make the value of dollar less than it used to. For example, you can buy a bottle of beer with 1 dollar but if you print too much money, a bottle of beer will cost 2 dollar Wink

If we can make greenback just only to print, a lot of men and women will rich and just print the greenback to earn cash. So cash means practically nothing in this planet, since everyone can simply get greenback.

If you can just print a dollar, then it will quickly depreciate. There will be a very high level of inflation. This will make us poor and hungry

The OP is not talking about printing bucks privately and illegally. He's speaking about how the treasury is offering their bonds to the central lender, and as a result producing forex into existence.I believe the point is to deceive individuals about this reality. The truth that they are inflating the currency offer. They don't want people realising.

Why not just print dollars? It should not be done because if people would just print dollars, every would just print it and there would be no empowerment. Nobody will be rich and nobody will be poor if we would all just print dollars. People would be lazy and not work because they don't have to work hard for money because they would just print dollars. And it would be a chaos if that happened.

We "print" dollars all the time, but it's mostly digital creation and is done by the banking system, not ncecessarily the Fed. Fractional reserve banking allows banks to loan 90% of deposits out, and that's how most of the new dollars in the economy are created. As long as the loaned money is being used to create more products and services in the economy that the market as a whole desires, everything is fine, as the loans (which are just a representation of value) are paid back with the new value that has been created. Essentially, value creation has to match dollar creation, otherwise you get a large amount of inflation whereby each dollar represents less value.

If money is printed freely then it can be worthwhile because it will make the value of money will drop and no price, the policy certainly takes into account many things.

Why borrow dollars and then pay back by printing them?

Why take the long way around?

It does not mean we can do it right away. The paper is expensive, used for printing. We can not be fake because we can be jailed or charged. I also thought that before, when I was a kid, why would not they just print money? But when I grew up? I understand more about everything. It's hard to make money, because it's expensive to make money  Undecided .

a government cant just print money as long as they want, it is still subject to regulations since printing a lot of money can cause inflation to the society, the value of the excessive printed money will go down to the point it has no value just like what happen during the japanese invation in the philippines during world war.

How do you feel that pounds are printed. If you know that secret you will turn out to be a wealthy gentlemen. So if you know how just do it bucks are simple to fake so that would not be difficult.

Printing dollars without any backing is like printing papers. This makes the currency go valueless and every country has got its own system for printing currencies. In several countries gold will be placed as an reserve and based on the value of gold holding currency will be printed.

Not in this century, though. After the Nixon Shock, fiat is not backed by any commodity at all. Basically we are just printing papers and the only thing that gives it a value is our belief that it does have a value. At the end of the day, paper money is just paper and it's value isn't even based on a fair supply and demand law. They are just printing it nonstop and our money gives us less and less purchasing power.

What has the bigger value? Something that's common everywhere or something rare found in a very few places? I think you see where I'm going with this. Also, that's how inflation works, you just print out money and it becomes worthless.

I agree with your thinking, because it's all too common where it happens and a lot is rarely found in that very little place, printing the new money will make, all will not have exchange rate.
