But back when he was creating Zimbabwe dollars by the bail, Gono said, “Therefore, printing money to sustain lives, to build infrastructure and a springboard from which to leap forward, cannot be bad.” At the time he looked to America for inspiration. “Look at the bridges across the many rivers in New York and elsewhere,” Gono told New African, “and the other infrastructure in the country that were built with high budget deficits. There are times when it is necessary to dig deeper and construct or reconstruct.”
“To ensure that my people survive, I had to print money,” Gono told Newsweek. “I found myself doing extraordinary things that aren’t in the textbooks. Then the IMF asked the U.S. to please print money. The whole world is now practicing what they have been saying I should not. I decided that God had been on my side and had come to vindicate me.”
Gono forstår ikke at han alene nærmest tillintetgjorde zimbabwes økonomi (helt til folket byttet til USD), men poenget om at IMF, verdensbanken og Bernanke nå ber verden om å gjøre det samme de advarte ham mot er valid.
