    If El Salvador had its own currency, they could tax and spend that instead. But no, they use US Dollars.

    This is a legit criticism. It’s absolutely wild that these colonized states are completely monetarily subservient to empire. I think they go with bitcoin instead of their own currency, because bitcoin is much harder to destroy/manipulate.
