24/ ok, I give up on this part and tbh I’m not sure it’s important. He has drifted into one of the features of FIAT/normal money being an instrument by which a state can eliminate its debt in that currency by tanking the value of its currency.
Given this, why would anyone lend a state money in its own currency? Sweden wants to borrow money, why wouldn’t you lend them euros? It seems a bit risky to use their currency. Though I believe these “loans” are actually in the form of government bonds, so in that case the borrower has taken control of the currency in which it is expressed. I bet the developing nations debt is not expressed in their own currency, just to make sure we can erase our debt, but they sure as hell can’t erase theirs.
