Unpopular : The standard of living and prosperity in the US is due to the printing and global spread of the USD. This allows our country to control and tax all dollar holder’s wealth. If the US did not pursue this goal, another country would have. For better or worse, the government is now obligated to keep up ridiculous spending to keep the dollars flowing and extending its reach. With the invention of digital scarcity, we now have an asset/money that is free from the tax of inflation.
