Brendan Nyhan complains about Republicans who are opposed to a “mythical global currency.”
A few posts up, FP Passport explains Special Drawing Rights:
So what on earth is a Special Drawing Right (SDR) anyway?
Basically: it’s a currency.
There’s a long way from the UNero or whatever the Paul crowd thinks a global currency is and SDRs, which have slightly more tangible existence than the Social Security trust fund (which is, literally, a stack of IOUs in a government safe somewhere in Washington). But I suppose I’m easily amused.
