  • The national debt continues to rise, raising concerns about misplaced priorities in government spending. 
  • The Repo Act could set a dangerous precedent for asset seizure without due process. 
  • Seizing assets from one country to give to another could undermine trust in the US dollar.

  • Debanking trends are causing countries to seek alternatives to the US dollar.
