Forging $1 doesn't remove $1 from everyone else.

If someone forged 80 quintillion dollars, it would remove the usefulness of $1 from everyone else. (and that is in fact the economic fear that’s generated through excess inflation, something that has happened in many countries)

Well, The FED has "forged" 9 trillion USD but apparently that increased the usefulness of everyone's dollars.
