Apparently what i typed earlier was complete garbage...
i was trying... and failing, to say that after T.H.E.Y. crash the dollar, T.H.E.Y. will be doing this thing where they issue a new currency "backed by gold"... but it will be a pain to convert... or some other shenanigans.
This is a future thing. And may not be the first thing T.H.E.Y. try.
i wasn't trying to say that The US has any backing. It is backed by the worlds largest terrorist organization.
That's why I mentioned fear. It's the currency they know how to mint best.
