So... Print money to pay off your national debt? What a great idea, I wonder why nobody has tried that before...
I mean why stop at a trillion? They can make a coin with a face value of anything, just make the face value the same as the debt and boom, no more debt.

What they need to do is a boss move by having the 1 trillion dollar coin minted. >

I keep seeing comments like this about a 1 trillion dollar coin. 
I know almost nothing about the debt ceiling. Can someone explain to me what minting a $1T coin would do?
