INFLATION! WHEELBARROWS!

Germany, 1921, when a (originally) pfennig (penny) postage stamp printed up as costing 1 million DM had to be overstamped with a rubber stamp to 1 milliarden (one billion in American notation) before it was issued, to keep up with runaway hyper-inflation.

/We so do not need to go there.

cheers
