I never denied that low rates hurt the currency. I implied that risk free rates are NOT too low relative to the exact risk you pointed out; default risk. There is no default risk in UST. If the market feels the Fed is "printing" too much, rates will surely adjust. So when it happens, we'll see, but it hasn't happened yet and any bullsh!t spewed by the inflationists about how the Fed is currently "printing", and inflation is CURRENTLY 12% and real rates are -10%, is to be ignored.
