Framed this way, the petrodollar has the very bad side for America- tying themselves to a region that sets up the forever wars, major overspending on defence (the US prior to the WWs of sitting quietly and build with oceans for passive defence), and a shift away from manufacturing, leading to outsourcing and then over reliance on, say, China.
I’m not equipped to ponder/postulate. The US put their own foot in their own bear trap…
Thanks again for sharing
