Elon Musk posted on X today in reply to a Heritage Foundation economist, saying that “America is headed for bankruptcy fyi.” The economist asked the question “How did we get here?” To which he answered the following: Two men: FDR and Richard Nixon.

This article will dive into the question on whether the dollar will crash as so many have predicted over the years. What it will point out is what I wrote about in my book Illusions of Wealth, that all fiat currencies eventually go to zero. Why? Because governments screw them up.
