Weimar USA: "Ultimately, the US may be forced to finance itself in foreign currency. This would expose the US to currency risk but most importantly it would not be able to service its debt by printing money. The US, like all borrowers, would become subject to the discipline of creditors." "And keep in mind that German reparations were payable only in gold or foreign currencies, not the Reichsmark."
