I half expect the dollar will lose a substantial amount of its value because I don’t see the national debt being paid off except by ‘monetization’. There just aren’t enough baby boomer replacement Americans, to create value from the relatively few manufacturing jobs that still exist here, that can be taxed in the future to pay it off. I never considered the potential of the dollar crashing because of a hack job.
This is about Treasury code theft, but it suggests the possibility of a hack attack.
