>if you promised the world that your currency can serve as a trusted foundation.
How do people get this backwards?
The US didn't say, "use our currency as the global reserve currency!" Countries chose and continue to choose to use the USD for global commerce. No one is forcing them, the USD really is valuable.
>World order is still fluctuating all as a result of these betrayals.
So raising rates is a betrayal, but allowing inflation to eat away at savings of those with USD holdings is not betrayal?
