What if the situation is "unprintable"? Meaning there is no way non-dollar countries could print their way out of their appreciating currencies?

See, before was easy when old pals would do a Plaza Accord (1985) and the system would reassert itself.

Today there are no old pals (in the few numbers required) to revert a currency appreaciation or depreciation, depending from where you look at it on a backroom deal.

You'd need a whole G-10 (Beyond G-7: China, HK, Taiwan, South Korea, Thailand, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Russia, Indiaand that wont be easy to come to an agreement.)
