This photo shows that money is worth less than a piece of paper.
When a country experiences inflation, prices for paper, pens, and other goods increase.
Explanation:
Inflation is a term used in the area of the Economy that represents a continuous and generalized increase of the prices of goods and services in an economic system. When this happens, the value of a country's money falls sharply, and the result is that the purchasing power of citizens has dropped too. The higher the inflation the lower the value of the national currency. Following this reasoning, we can compare the image described in the question, with the concept of inflation, where prices of paper, pens and other goods increase and consequently money starts to be worth less than paper.
