Hmm I get your point, but what you're not considering is that the usd is actually backed by people who just trust the american economy and so they buy bonds, not because we force them to with guns.
They do it because our economy is so strong.
If you think our economy is so strong because we force the world to back our dollars using guns, then that is a perspective I haven't considered before. But I suppose if you think the usd is based on the value of oil we buy cheaply with guns, then that could be debatable but oil is not what our economy is based on so idk if this is true.
I hadn't considered that our economies greatest asset is our guns [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |
Literally, the world subsidize your entire economy who would go bust otherwise, by buying petrol in dollars.
Nobody, not even republican dispute this.
Last one who did got promptly assassinated and his country left to rot to show others.
Edit: nothing to do with us believing in your economy. WE are forced to, under threat. by guns.
