jb55 on Nostr: What if US loses WRC status and noone wants their dollars, what then? Just collapse? ...
What if US loses WRC status and noone wants their dollars, what then? Just collapse? Seems like a risky proposition to be a nation of just importing everything and just pressing a button on a money printer.
Not being totally dependent on foreign adversaries doesn’t seem like a bad precautionary step, even if it’s less efficient than a pure free market.
