    Bretton Woods and Amendments

    These should be available to anybody interested in redemption. Also get a look at the Current Asset Report - especially the footnotes about SDR's - Special Drawing Rights.

    Indirectly, I recently learned that the dollar is "pegged" to oil i.e. the Petrodollar.

    Mandating that oil be bought in dollars only generates demand for FRNs.

    The Bretton Woods system has been abandoned. Free floating currency is the standard currently.
