There's no hypothetical "If forced to, I would...", its "I actually gave up 11% of value for freedom"

Now, of course, depending on how you define "freedom" there can actually be "freedom" in that, but it does cost you something.
Being forced to use a currency that is intentionally devalued doesn't sound like freedom.
 
It's not just a US problem. Every Country with their own currency does it. The REAL inflation rate is much much higher when you include all goods and services and not an ever changing hand picked carefully curated list.

I hearing you. Australia is a basket case really. We are a country blessed with natural resources which we essentially give away. We are shutting down coal fired power stations trying to chase a net zero dream while exporting coal so other countries can have cheap reliable power.
We are among the largest gas exporter while domestic gas prices are sky high. We are actually going to import gas.
Housing is insanity here.

We are in stagflation big time.
 
US money-market funds now have more than $8 trillion in assets under management. Currently the avg MM yield is 3.8%. The Fed will likely make a .25-.50% cut by Dec 9-10 and has signaled that it will likely make additional cuts in 2026. These cuts will bring MM yields down to the low 3's and eventually down to the 2's. I think a large percentage of that 8T sitting in MM's will move into equities/crypto chasing higher yields. Barring a Black Swan event the stock/crypto market should set records highs. Hopefully I've picked the right horse.
