What do you think will happen after a few trillion dollars of bailouts? The Chinese Wuhan Flu is accomplishing what Bernie wants - massive increase in government size and scope and spending.

We are hearing from doctors who are using older inexpensive drugs to successfully treat Wuhan infected people. We also have factories ramping up production of testing kits so we can catch it early enough to treat it with these inexpensive drugs. Hopefully these new developments will help undo the damage before the dollar loses too much value. Only time will tell. This decline of the dollar began a long time ago when the federal reserve was given the power to print money. Prior to that the US government had control of that and the dollar was far less volatile before the federal reserve took over. IMHO we are overdue for a new currency anyway. One that is issued by and under the control of the US government. No more of this BS where every dollar created is done so with interest rates attached to them the moment it is created by a private bank aka the Federal Reserve.
