I hate it when bad people make good points, because the US dollar is absolutely a bludgeoning tool in economic warfare. The might of the US dollar as an economic weapon was in full display when the foreign appropriations act of 1991 severely exacerbated the collapse of Yugoslavia.
The US dollar should not be the de facto world currency, and trying to stop progress through these means will isolate the US from the entire world.
