Not only did you ignore what the guy said, but you don't even seem to understand the points you are trying to make. The reason why the dollar is a reserve currency, and why so many oil contracts are made out in USD is because both parties have a reasonable expectation that it will retain its relative value over a reasonable time period. This means that it is a reserve currency because no one group can manipulate its value. If it was subject to as much political machination as you seem to imply, then no one would want to use it.
