I can't figure out what in that article is supposed to be a good thing, and the article doesn't seem to hold an opinion of that sort.

My first question is: good for whom? Second question is: how? It's definitely good for holders of whatever replaces the dollar, but it's disastrous for everybody in the US, as far as I can tell.
