If we owe debts in dollars, we don't need to "scrape up foreign exchange", we just pay back the debt with dollars.
You just like to hear yourself talk, don't you? You never add any information to the discussion. At least no correct information.

Not if they aren't accepted. This too has happened in countries before. The Bannan Republics could no longer issue their own debts...and had to buy European and U.S. debt monetized in their home currencies. Hence, after a crash, the ongoing continuing debt operation will no longer be able to be monetized in dollars for the fresh capital the phoney free traders keep insisting we need to be borrowing.

Excuse me, but this sounds like you talking about yourself, as usual. Pretty bad case of "projection", Todd. You need help.
