ELi5: How can USA print unlimited notes to pay its loan because it has loan in US DOLLAR?

234 views

I recently saw some videos where some guys say that USA can just print more notes to pay its debt because its debt is in US Dollar while other countries can’t, but isn’t it impossible because it would degrade the value of US dollar because that’s the reason countries don’t print unlimited currency notes.

Who cares. When the value to dollar degrades and inflation rises just raise the interest rates. Now U.S. can export the inflation and currency degradation to other countries.
