Much of the US is dependent on welfare paid for by a few industrial/financial centers. As a whole, we are also known of late for currency manipulation and political issues. Ask anyone about the effectiveness of our military should there be a funding crunch, with how much is spent maintaining overpriced, underperforming equipment.
On the primacy of the dollar: we walk by faith, not by sight.

The circumstances of EU members with respect to the EU is substantially similar to the circumstances of states to the US federal government. >Yet we're the de facto global currency. This is begging the question. >Works great. Hm. >US doctrine is that money is no object. Ask UK about the alternative. I'd rather ask the Axis powers about the topic in question. >Plus a real military, funded by a real economy. Again, hm. I think you're proving my point. Real things can weather a period of stoppage. Castles built on data and debt disappear when the lights go out. Again, ask someone in-the-know what happens if funding or supply lines dry up, even temporarily.
