The last guardrail the US had was Jerome Powell.

You can use US$ to Warsh your ass from now on.

Always has been.

Wilson brought back the US Central Bank (aka the Fed). Andrew Jackson killed the bank to free us from their clutches.

Nixon killed the gold standard so we could be the worlds central currency printing press and export inflation to the whole world and bully everyone into submission and extract their resources.

Wall st finished the financialization and commoditization of everything on the world so they could own it and gamble with the future while everyone else pays the bill.
