The USD. The US Dollar. The United States Dollar Bill. Damnit Mike, stop talking money! Banter Banter comes back again to do the Old Man Grumble about Capitalism, the Gold Standard, and Fiat Currency. Get onboard because politics in the USA impact your international currency! Now that the fear-mongering is over, Mike talks us through the history leading up to most of the globe using the USD as the baseline for their local currency. This is one of the few moments to catch a peak behind the curtains of the Banter Banter recording schedule because of major changes related to the political converation. At least you can enjoy another sit down at the corner of Nostalgia and Reality with Banter Banter.
