A pity Franklin never thought of a way to stop the government from making dollars nearly worthless by printing trillions of them.
If Franklin was alive today..DS would probably set out to destroy him. The FBI would raid his home. And the media would make crap up about him.
Probably all the original founders would be considered terrorists and a threat to our pretend democracy.
In this instance, you can't blame any U.S. government for doing that.
Untold amounts of Continental currency were counterfeited on purpose by the British Empire with the sole purpose of causing hyperinflation as a part of economic warfare. It worked. The fake bills unleashed in the colonies/states did what they were intended to do.
People still remember the phrase "it ain't worth a Continental", even if they don't really know why they know it or where they heard it.
