minus-squaredavel [he/him]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·edit-26 months agoFrom David Greaber’s and Michael Hudson’s work, I think I have a better understanding than most.

The specific monies that the US & Argentina specifically have are sovereign fiat monies, which are controlled by their governments.
