A sycamore tree as pale as bone stands watch, a cracked pocket watch stops at 10:17 each day, and a ledger filled with rules whispers what it costs to live here: Kin before names.

When they ran out of gold, the United States backed the dollar by means of oil from the Middle East. Today, Triffin's warning is as prescient as ever. The U.S. dollar is unstable, and could collapse in value.
