CLIP taken from Rick and Morty Season 3 Episode 1 "Rickshank Redemption"
Rick and Morty is an American adult animated science fiction sitcom created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon for Cartoon Network's late-night programming block Adult Swim. The series follows the misadventures of cynical mad scientist Rick Sanchez and his good-hearted but fretful grandson Morty Smith, who split their time between domestic life and interdimensional adventures. The series premiered on December 2, 2013, and the third season concluded on October 1, 2017. In May 2018, the series was picked up for an additional 70 episodes over an unspecified number of seasons.

poppyface whoa. We both said almost the exact same thing. Cool
Ah yes, the most boring, yet effective way to topple a government
*economics ftw*
I mean it's cool but it doesn't make any sense economically. The value of a currency is whatever people believe it is. All the government would have to do is say "This currency is still worth 1 of itself" and people could still behave as such until they fixed the 1 character of code that Rick changed (and it doesn't make sense why that variable he changed would exist in the first place)
@@KodakKid33 It makes perfect sense. Stupidity is the foundation stone of economics. Confuse people and they're liable to panic their way into an economic collapse, even when they could just say what you said and move on.
It's a logical impossibility to change the value of something from one of itself to none of itself. I can't believe people are somehow trying to justify this as realistic.
The whole point of this scene is to screw with Rick and Morty fans who like to talk about how realistic the show or try to justify everything being totally logical.
@@rtozier2011 bruh
@@tehcommenterofepic Yes, it's impossible. But what's not impossible is making people believe it's possible. That's all the economy is: belief. That's what Rick's taking advantage of.

I find it interesting how the blaster the President shot himself with looks just like a Glock with a paint job, as opposed to every other weapon in this show.
It looks more like a S&W M&P 9MM to me.
john titor Square slide, squared off trigger guard, vertical slide serrations, bottom of pistol grip has that fat part like a Glock, what features of an M&P do you see?
To quote another comment in this video, to him its an alien gun, a collectible like Zulu spears

Honestly, if the entirety of a civilization depended on something so fragile and singular, then it didn't deserve to exist in the first place.
ShadowDurza From what I know of behavioral economics, the value only stops existing if people don’t believe the currency will be valued. So as long as any sufficiently large group of people treat it as valid, then the scrap of paper with a 1 is valued at 1. For Rick’s plan to work, the Galactic gvt must be centralized to an insane degree and somehow communicate the currency value with no info gaps. Really cool idea.
Fortunately the current economic system is too decentralized so even if the entire US got Thanos’d, the dollar would still have some value. Not what it is now, but some. Goes to show as complicated as global systems are, they’re complicated for a reason. Look at all the worries EU nations have had sharing a currency with a fluctuating value based on the actions of peers. Neither system is perfect, but by George, humans make it work. Can’t say the same for these bugs.
@@conorgleeson2453 maybe that's why Rick used this plan. It never would have worked on a human government but these guys ain't human are they?
@@robbieking4070 Yes, i agree. But the obvious message is a (light and hilarious) critique to how our stability is dependent on the value of a currency, which has no value in itself. A situation like this (but without "intelligent?" space insects) can happen even in our world, maybe due to hyperinflation or other reasons.
@@apc9714 Very true and kinda scary.
Conor Gleeson I’m not saying your wrong because I don’t know a lot about currency and economics but if I think if the U.S government were to disappear the value of the dollar would be worthless I thought the value currency was only worth the economics of the government.
But like I said I’m not sure so feel free to school me
And this is why floating exchange rates are the stabilizer of society.

0:26 morty’s suggestion is really close to the season 5 finale
"I can answer that...... for money!"
-Politician in Nutshells
ok, to be real though, the easiest solution to "the one is now a zero" is simply: Do nothing! If the public doesn't know that their money is worth nothing now, they will continue to act and spend money as if nothing changed at all. Likewise, you can do the same and spend/receive currency as if nothing has happened. Something only has value if people say it has value, the economy would have been perfectly fine if they just didn't panic.
Wouldn't that solution fall apart when the stock exchange opens? Even with a singular currency it would be tracked by traders and in a galaxy the exchange should be active 24/7 which means the investors and such would know the truth before even the governement on account of how quickly they need to react to changes in the economy. It would be like the Wall Street crash of 1929 investors killing themselves only much worse, the news would report it until they realised they were not being paid the public would know whats up initially but then be in the dark and chaos assumes.
I'm not sure that would work, you know there's a reason why there's a variable value of the currency depending on the imports and exports to other galaxies, so, if the currency dropped to zero the other galaxy literly could buy everything in this and they will die of hunger unless they change their economy to be solely depending on the galaxy itself and that will result to a galactic war somewhen in the future.

0:25 foreshadowing evil Morty.
Bro they’re literally almost the same people ofc they’d have the same ideas or something like that
Note to self: After building a powerful galactic empire, be sure to include a terminal in the galaxy’s toughest prison made for its most dangerous inmates so people at said prison can access all institutions of state and topple the government in a myriad of ways
I think Rick just hacked it, but yes, it is stupid
Also make sure that every guard who works in the deepest depths of the prison where the most ruthless criminals are, has a badge that can get them unquestioned access to every door and gate between that most secure position and complete freedom.
“Employee of the month ladies and gentlemen”
Everyone in government and their affiliates please take this wise advise.
like what the president bug did?
Because the FED can literally just change the value of money by accessing an excel spreadsheet and changing a specific cell to ‘0.’ Grow up
I uh... not sure if this is as simple as changing the value of a currency to a zero. Because... well... its more complicated than that. So much so that they made an entire subject to be learned called economics. Mind blowing right?
Creating new money by selling valueless (as in, not profitable for anyone that buys it) debt of that same money and filling the "bag" of all the economic money with that valueless money, making real hard worked money in that bag untraceable and a minority, is how economies and most specifically the fed and eu are changing the number from 1 to 0. This is metaphorically already happening people and it's not going to look pretty.
Note: the bag is just a metaphor to reference where the money goes, the economy
"He who control the pants control the galaxy!"
How to topple an empire. Screw their economy.
That’s something you almost *never* see on a series
Rick and Morty is really, really good.
Leche de caballo
Usually it’s
“BUILD A RESISTANCE! TAKE IT BY FORCE! Etc”
But in actuality, the best/most successful revolutions happen from inside the government.
Usually involving other more strategical assets like politicians, soldiers, generals, bankers,
Anything that involves the economy and military, the whole wazoo.
Cough cough Mr Robot

Alright wise guy, name at least 3 other shows that have people topple an empire by screwing their economy?
@@couragew6260 That's interesting, as a sci-fi/fantasy writer I feel like that could make for some really interesting stories.
Most people won't get this but the moment he materialized the butt was the moment Rick understood he could cast his genjutsu on the entirety of shoney's and the whole reality.
For the love of god, watch something other than Naruto.
It's genbuttsu, but yes. You have learned much.
The beauty of this joke is that by changing a 1 to a 0, Rick did not destroy a civilization but collapsed a government. Those are two different things. Currency devaluation almost always leads to a change of order, but the people and their culture don’t just disappear because of it.
Nah, they released shorts showing that the Galactic Federation’s civilization basically collapsed with this. They even have a video showing how these bug things can cook their young to survive the ongoing collapse.
0:16 that made laugh so hard

What's funny is that the Galactic Government could potentially recover from Summer & Morty's ideas. But toppling the economy? Well that's a pretty effective way to keep the government off Rick's back
As we found out later from Tanya, all the bug leaders ended up dead and the new leaders are half her age.
Rick did a rather efficient job of throwing a spanner in the gear box.
It was actually quite zen and kung fu what he did. Minimal effort for maximum effect. It was possibly the least violent thing he did all season, that led to the deaths of millions.
No, with how stupid the bugs are there were definitely loads of dead civilians.
They should have noticed someone changed the number, and quickly and easily changed it back.
Ricks plan only works cause no one followed reasonable logic.
0:58 Wait who’s paying me to yell at this guy
I can answer that...for money.
Gentlemen, Gentlemen, Gentlemen. There’s a solution here you’re not seeing.

“Calm down people”.

I like that Rick dealt with both his Government Level enemies in one move, I suppose the enemy of my enemy are actually the people you lock in a room together and let them do all the work
I love how the Galactic President is Calculon from Futurama.

He's also Crocubot, Abradolf Lincler, The Brain from Pinky and the Brain, Inspector Gadget, Doctor Doom, etc.
The bug president : there is a solution here
The bug president: * has left the chat *
Boooo this is less funny
I love how this has like the most simple answer of all time, but he still chose to do that.
What I loved about this is moment is that it was making a point of the absurdity of relying on currency as an incentive, let alone a centralized currency.
Everyone involved could very easily continue to do what it is that is required for things to remain operable, but instead resort to primative fear and fighting.
This is why you shouldn't have a unified centralised currency.
this is why you should use the gold standard as backup for your curency
@@doppelhelixes gold standard is also a fictional value in itself. Nixon proved it by removing the gold standard for US dollar which lead to US currency being based in other type of value which where based on US dollar.

Adios, Buggy President (Maurice LaMarche).
The animators are so amazing. The alien president explodes into chitin splinters around blue goop with brains suspended in it which then collapses. Crazy good.
I honestly like the detail of the galactic president, he actually knew how to deal with the problem, if you look closely however, once everyone else in the office start arguing over their payment and such, his eyes widened, as in he realized there is nothing he can do so he just does his thing so to not see his government collapse
"Good pitches, kid. I'm almost proud. But watch closely as Grampa topples an empire by changing a one...to a zero!"
_Destroying everything with just one simple nuclear-button-type click. I define it epic._
The only way he could be more efficient would have been by the Power of Doing Nothing.
You'd be surprised how effective that can be.
“Gentlemen there’s a solution you’re not seeing”
That’s my go to now
Back when I watched this without knowing anything about economics, I actually thought that $1 is literally the entire budget of the galactic governmenr

This is why virtual currency is useless on it's own you always need something physical to represent your value.

And falsehood on the claims that "it's normal since the dawn of civilization" because that asserts, falsely, that capitalism as an economic doctrine had always existed in human history; when in reality it hasn't and never had until much recently in human history. What humanity used before was the barter system and several other systems and forms of mercantilism before capitalism came to be.

Funny how Game Stop got almost the same reaction.
The most realistic way to take down aliens since HG Wells War of The World’s.
There's nothing such a switch to configure the value of a currency unless the economy of the galaxy is corrupted because its truly depends on the imports and exports from/to other galaxies so, there's a chance that the president killed himself because of the public rage or maybe he can transfer his brain to another bug like Rick did in of the episodes.

He is a bit more experienced with this kind of thing.
Stargate Atlantis did that during its final season. It was called the Attero Device. A galaxy-wide FTL jammer. Could be tuned to different types of FTL, and destroyed any ship that turned on their drive.
Unfortunately it overcharged the eponymous Stargates, which started exploding too. Too bad so sad.
What I wouldn't give for a solution-oriented politician.
Pretty easy solution actually.
Just use some other currency until the old one gets fixed.
Maybe I just don't get economics, but it seems odd they don't have a backup
Man the animators actually thought about what would happen if a bullet destroyed a exoskeleton skull. The whole thing doesn’t just go the exo skeleton breaks first then the free flowing organs and blood fall like a balloon was popped. Good on them
Not blood ,hemolymph
I dont know anything about how stuff like this works but if Rick could change the value of the currency like that cant people working for the government just change it back again?
Or is that something only a super genius like Rick is supposed to be able to do?
Since that's there only currency value similar to stock marketing, he prob got rid of it. So that meant they cant buy it back because they're broke in general.
1:01 But you're right. Actually they could. ...For money. But now 1 unit of the currency is worth 0. Changing its worth back to the worth of 1 unit gives 0. But really you'd like to watch Mr. Robot series.
Essentially, the idea is that since the closest access to it is a warzone, and any other access would require effort, their ingrained mindset of value extraction means they refuse to work without being paid, meaning that if their wages are currently nothing, none of them are willing to put in the work to fix the problem. Its an indictment of the current atmosphere of the government putting all its emphasis on transactions rather than other forms of value, and of wage slavery in general creating a fundamentally fragile society.
