• When Will the US Depreciate the Dollar

    From ltlee1@21:1/5 to All on Sun Mar 23 18:40:13 2025
    The US dollar is grossly overvalued. It could not improve
    non-competitiveness in manufacturing without devaluing the dollar.

    Is a competitive America a problem for the PRC and/or the world?
    Not at all.

    Rather, a non-competitive and rapidly declining America is a threat to
    China as well as the world.
