Economics

1. The US dollar is the world's primary reserve currency. We get significant economic advantages regardless of debt levels. We can literally spend our way out of global crises like we did in 2008. Can’t do that if no one uses our dollar as trade base.

2. US debt is primarily denominated in our own currency and supported by the world's largest economy. If US debt is *not* backed by the largest economy, who will buy it? Yields will plummet.

3. Economic "resets" typically don't happen by design but through crisis, often with far more severe consequences beyond this controlled policy change produces.

4. Idk what to say about self-inflicted economic pain lol. Why would we self-inflict?

The US dollar being the world's reserve currency is bad for everyone

in a modern world with instant communication, someone's currency is likely to dominate and become the reserve. a fixed supply currency would be technologically regressive, so we need some type of currency with engineered levers pulled be someone or something for best economic results.
