I mean, we're talking about Triffin dilemma even last week, right?
So you sort of need a weaker dollar and you need dollars to be less of the world export and to weaken in terms of reserve currency power if you're going to reverse the effects of the Triffin dilemma and start to bring manufacturing back to the U.S.
So it's kind of part of the plan.
