The Paper Bomb

Forget weapons of mass destruction, forget nukes, forget bullets, and instead imagine a weapon of much more destructive force... the paper bomb.

Both England and Germany planned to use this weapon during World War II. While the destructive implications of such a weapon are minimal its power is very real.

This is how the paper bomb works. You print your enemy's currency. Fill up the biggest airplane you can and drop it on them. Repeat as often as possible.

With a huge influx of money it will create hyperinflation within your enemy's economic status. It creates a vicious cycle that is very hard (and unpopular) to break. The country will have to print money to pay off its debts which only further lowers the value of the money. Soon news papers cost millions of units. Restaurants no longer can afford to reprint the menus with the new prices. Grocery stores will have to hire people to change the prices of items every 30 minutes. People will have to be paid twice a day to carry all the money they earn and have to spend it immediately since it holds no value if it sits around.

Perhaps this is why America is making our money look so dumb. People don't want to be seen with pink, orange, and purple money. Whatever happened to the greenback?
