1. Maybe that's just what we need. For our foreign debt holders to
pull the damn plug on us for a while. It might be a good way to remind America that we aren't nearly as superior and "independent" as we like to tell ourselves that we are.

On the other hand, the human toll of that kind of currency collapse would be terrible. It sure would be nice if we could come to our senses without some kind of economic disaster to wake us all up.
