The US dollar is the world's reserve currency So countries keep huge stores of dollars in their reserves because they need it for trade Then what happens is the US starts the money printer to pay for US government services This inflates the dollar and means that everyone who holds the dollar has lost value

Including Americans who are paid for their labour with dollars and do not own assets

So wealthy Americans/companies see an influx of money, asset prices rise and every other country gets poorer relative to the USA

I would argue the opposite. If you compare US dollar to every other currency the value of their currency has decreased a lot compares to US dollar. This would be a plus to hold US dollar as their own currency has depreciated and holding more dollars has helped them reduce their losses. But it has one down side is that if you hold too much US dollar the country exposes itself to US monetary policy.

I don't see pricing anywhere on the website. Also, you never explicitly say that it is free. This is concerning.

It is a public company. They pay bonus and raises using money that people invest in the stock market. A $100,000 per share company becomes $4 per share company in 4 years.

There is a theory that if your body is not exposed to enough good bacteria and other pathogens then it will build up an army to fight out non important things like pollen and peanuts. I would recommend giving kids probiotics and also not keeping environment so clean with wipes and excessive hand washing that they never get exposed to good and some bad germs.

This is very similar to how Hotwire does replacing of HTML generated on server side in Ruby on Rails.
