Did US scam these two countries: KSA with petro dollars, and Japan with cheap money for carry trade? and the rest of the world with USD as reserve currency?

Every minute a sucker is born (PT Barnaum). Let us not be one


                                                              Plaza Accord in 1985 (vs Japan)


                                           Henry Kissinger inking Petrodollar in 1971 (vs Arabs)


                                          Bretton Woods agreement of 1944 (vs the world)




The modern world has witnessed three agreements (scammed the other nations)  events that could lead  that contributed to US prosperity, but could to the end of US dollar dominance, and eventually the crash of the dollar. and loss of prosperity of USA:  

     1.  The end of the petro dollar with KSA after 50 years 

           Brokered by Henry Kissinger in 1973;    In exchange for the protection by US:   armament, and               US bases, KSA would require payment and pricing in US dollars.  Thus countries would have to             procure US dollars to buy oil.  Thus US has to print plenty of dollars, enjoying an economic                     activity for which it has no equity.   Furthermore, KSA has to invest its dollar hoard on US
           treasury thus funding US easy life.  This has gone for 50 years. 

           US exported inflation to KSA by printing more US dollars,   It did not affect US then

          Why is KSA no longer using USD in oil trade?   Maybe there are all ready sour notes in relation
          ship with US.   Those who planned the 911 attacks were Saudis and there were many other causes
           of friction 

          KSA has priced and accepted other currency for its oil trade:  Euros, Chinese Yuan, USSR rubles
           The rest of the world has other payment system as initiated by BRICS bypassing SWIFT.  It also
          took note of the weaponization of the dollar for sanctions as it did with USSR for Ukraine war

         KSA also wanted to balance its trade with the rest of the world
