That's a very confused ramble.

Ultimately the problem is that there is no overlord to back the promises. Therefore you either take the nation's credit on value, or you buy something from them of value, or you don't trade.

The floating exchange rates will sort it out - if we allow them to float and we stop using interest rates as the stabilisation policy.
