Timely. Many countries have been quietly divesting themselves of dollar- >>denominated securities owing to what happened to those held by Russia.
When you weaponise a currency and your foreign debt, as the US has
recently done, you better expect some blowback. Consequently, we have
the BRICS conference this coming week (ends on Thursday IIRC) and it is >>rumoured they're on the point of announcing a new reserve currency to >>compete with the dollar for the settlement of international trade. This
is also what is believed to be behind the current bull market in gold, >>since that commodity is expected to form at least part of the backing
for the new currency. That could pose a threat to the dollar's monopoly, >>since the greenback is underpinned by nothing beyond the faith people
have in it. Expect fireworks....
Any currency is ultimately underpinned by the productivity of its
country and people. That's a simple conservation principle.
No conference of bureaucrats ever does much but reduce productivity.

It usually takes a generation to really wreck things, although it has
been done a lot faster.
Could Breitbart be biassed in some way ?
Most news sources are horribly biased, essentially propaganda.
Real Clear at least links to both sides.
The New York Times seems to be getting a little bit more journalistic
lately. I hope that trend continues.

Regulating an economy with pouring government money into crucial
sectors and infrastructure, seems vastly more effective.
China does this, and remember Trump-level corruption can get you

Exactly. People come here and try to look strange and nobody much
notices. Maybe wearing a red tux and a top hat would get a little
attention. But that's a national trend; you could look weird in
Hattiesburg Mississippi nowadays and not cause a stir. Races date and
have adorable babies.

People travel and migrate all over the world now. They didn't do much
of that in 1491. My company looks like a UN committee.
Of course it will take time to homogenize the gene pool. Half-life for
that might be 300 years or so.
It would be interesting to see how mixing of the gene pool and
universal English will affect tribal warfare. Hitler attacked
countries to "protect" German-speaking minorities. Putin attacked
countries to "protect" Russian speakers.

Any currency is ultimately underpinned by the productivity of its

and politicians don't understand control theory.
Regulating an economy through monetary policy (interest rates - the usual
method) is far more problematic than most folks would ever imagine. It's
been likened to pulling a brick with an elastic band - and that's not a
bad analogy.
Economists don't even agree on which direction to pull, but they do
mostly want to pull hard. It's the power thing. Just Powell's body
language slams a trillion dollars around nowadays.
It's not a good career path for an economist to say "leave it alone
and the market will work."
I cite the morons who forced interest rates to zero for years and
didn't think what might happen.
It's incredibly difficult to get the rate set right in order
to produce long-term stability and the optimally desired 'goldilocks
economy'. That's why there's normally a panel of economic advisers
involved. It's too complex a decision for just one man.
So let 300 million people decide.
