The End of Dollar Hemogeny

* Warning: Site is a haven of liberal ideas and anti war propaganda. Do not click if you've got a closed mind.


Anyway, I found the predictions of hyperinflation and the doom of half the world's economy, at least those that are using US dollars without being backed by something more physical. Snow Crash and :nuyen:, anyone?

The idea that we invaded iraq (and possibly soon Iran) to maintain our economic dominance is certainly an interesting notion. but that really isn't the important nor shadowrun related part of this article.

My question is: what backs the Nuyen?? is it determined by oil, or orichalcum, or what?
