Ironic isn't it? Countries that elected to abandon the dollar sacrificed their resources, their culture, and their very identity to preserve it. China = Chinese labor. They make it, we use it. We do however supply most of the resources they need to make things and simultaneously we are improving their quality of life. The idea that the Yuan would eclipse the dollar is ludicrous. China doesn't even have an international banking system, but I suppose it could loan money from fruit stands or something. Who knows.
