US capitalism (Jewish bankers and greedy politicians) is fucking you up as we speak.

You know what all that paper promissory note (paper bill) will do to US economy. With every new $100 bill printed, your $100 bill in your pocket or in your bank account has just depreciated by 50% to $50. If there is only one $100 bill in the market, it is valuable. As soon as the bank prints 10 more $100 bills and circulates it into the market, that original $100 bill suddenly loses its value by tenfold. Now your $100 bill will only buy you $10 worth of goods instead of $100 worth of goods.

Re-printing and furtherdeveloping banknotes is necessary because of making it more difficult to counterfeit (since the counterfeiters do also step forward with techological benefits). Secondly, banknotes do use up, become ugly, sputty, suttered, squeezed, ripped, flaw in print with time. So, a periodical renewal of certain amounts of circulating money is needed to keep it usable.

For a replacement, exactly the amount of bad banknotes being destroyed is re-inserted new into circulation.
