Ep. 141: Shaking Up Brent Johnson's Commentary on the Triffin Dilemma
About this episode
Bob challenges Brent Johnson's views on the Triffin Dilemma and the future of the dollar as the global reserve currency.
Brent Johnson (of "dollar milkshake" fame) recently posted a video relaying the Triffin Dilemma to our current monetary situation. Bob pushes back, arguing that there was no problem with the dollar being tied to gold, and that its days as the global reserve are fewer than Brent thinks.
