in other words, shorting the dollar. it's the same reason you buy just about any asset that's not bonds or cash AKA real assets. People know, it's only a matter of time before the feds default on the value of the dollar.
- bufferoverflow 4y agoNo, they just slowly devalue it. Though not so slowly in the last couple of years. Default is different, it's an inability to pay debts. They have no problem printing more dollars and paying debts.

- bufferoverflow 4y agoThere's no such obligation. USD purchasing power has been dropping pretty steadily.
