It impacts our own citizens by devaluing their money currency and things denominated in it. It's not delayed until the day of reckoning, it's constantly dragging people's currency down.

Ahhhhhh....

So you believe it's real currency.... That's cute.

Have you ever wondered how long it would take for each press (or multiple) to print a trillion dollar bills? Just curious...

It's used as a medium of exchange. What's not real about that?

I've never thought about how long it would take to print bills.

So the imaginary currency, with no real basis in the physical world(and no finite restrictions other than arbitrary rules for certain classes from the political elite), is being used by multiple economies and countries for a medium of exchange because of its manipulated market imaginary value....

Please see my first comment.

Again, the US is gone as it once was. At some point I see 3 outcomes: - balkanization - takeover from within - takeover from outside

Believe what you want though. I've known people that believe if they chop their pecker off they become a woman.

Not sure why you think I believe in the dollar. It's toilet paper. Only a fool would keep lots of dollars as wealth. But it is a medium of exchange, e.g. you work, get money, then buy something with it. That's all currency is good for, temporary transfer of value. Money actually holds its value, but the dollar hasn't been real money for a long time, when it was actually redeemable for gold and silver.
