A subprime dollar? Not the end of the world; but a change of collateral may be asked for

Sir Martin Feldstein’s “The dollar may be falling at just the right time” March 28, is a timely reminder that it is not necessarily that bad for the dollar doing upon other currencies what other currencies have done to the dollar; and that there is no need to look at it all as the end of the world… even though it might be the end of that money that was backed only by the trust in the government and that has had a run for almost 40 years now, some say amazingly.
