A very pessimistic mood.
It certainly deserves to be pessimistic. If the world currency becomes worthless paper, the entire world financial system will experience a brief chaos, but it will soon be replaced by a new order. But what happens after that?
If the United States is still the strong manufacturing nation it once was, it wouldn't matter.
For a country, there is actually no concept of bankruptcy internally. Theoretically, as long as the products needed by the population can be self-sufficient, even if a hundred trillion is owed, at least the most basic stability can be ensured.
But the global supply chain system they had built before does not follow this logic.
Yes, the United States no longer has the foundation for a complete supply chain. Even its domestic heavy industry, which is advantageous, relies on multiple countries worldwide to supply various parts, bringing them to the U.S. for final assembly.
