We're still racking up debt from Iraq and Afghanistan? Ain't we still in Afghanistan? How the hell could we handle another way and it's debt?

Japan has more than 3x net public debt to GDP than the US and there are several other western countries with ratios higher than the US. This country has plenty of fiscal room if it needs to to add a few trillion to the debt and not materially push up interest rates or "collapse the dollar" (i dont know what this means).

Not saying it is good policy, it's just a fact.

On how the dollar will fail?

Yes and explain what the dollar failing even means while you're at it.

Ok these are my observations and you can add as to why not

For 1 and the most important the Petro dollar will be no more as countries will refuse to trade in Ameican dollars. China already has agreements in place with multiple countries specifically Iran. The dollar is almost done.

The BRICS will replace American currency power in that part of the world and Iran will shut down oil production to the rest of the world throuhh thr canal and Russia to Europe. China will default on their debts and America will continue print fake money at an astronomical rate with no idea on how it will be repaid. China also is the leading country in minerals specifically gold.

American government has troops in Iraq abd Affghanistan with no money if a World War 3 starts. shyt is a rap.

The petrodollar system was useful because it forced oil exporting nations to reinvest the proceeds from their sale of oil back into USD-denominated assets. This is called petrodollar recycling and effectively ceased to exist once the price of oil collapsed and forced oil producing nations into deficits, further forcing them to draw down on their reserves and sell USD assets (OPEC-member nations have been a net seller of US treasuries since 2015). Your understanding of markets is very stale and is not relevant anymore.

The rest of your post is a rambling fantasy you made up in your head. Please, educate yourself more.

Oh it's fantasy but America just didn't go to war with Iraq and Libya because of the Petro. China has a deal with 12 countries to use Yuan and have a partnership with Russia worth billions of dollars in oil production and delivery. American dollar will collapse in a world war 3 our economy is streched and will be abandon.

The next war will be about economy breh and rulership. Lol at you thinking the dollar or the federal reserve can survive printing money for a global war. America entire military budget is weapons and contractors. They destroy and contractors grab n rebuild. Corporate shyt and try that on an Asian country in this era good luck.

Not going to say I support nuking mfers for hacking but I do agree that penalties/sentences for hacking related offenses should be much more harsh. And if you do so to a critical utility/government function etc, should be some crazy mandatory minimum. Need to put the fear of god in these people.
