What currency can replace it though?


dollar backed by gold


The bankers fucked over Americans. Thanks to frational reserve banking we'd have to start at square one. Thats almost a centuries worth of inflation. Theres nothing worse than currency backed based on faith.

Fiat currency is actually the most stable in the long run. Hyperinflation is a nice bogyeman to trot around, but it only happens in limited circumstances (namely when a country's debt is denominated in another currency or in gold, so if they can't pay their debts, printing money to do so just devalues it with insane speed)
