The Crumbling Pillars of the US Dollar: A Global Reset in Motion

In a series of bold and unsettling predictions, geopolitical and geo-economic expert Dr. Ankit Shah has warned that the US dollar may be heading toward an unprecedented collapse. According to him, this is not merely speculation—it’s a shift rooted in deep structural imbalances within the global economic system, driven by years of unsustainable practices and manufactured dominance.

The Harsh Reality of WESTERN HEGEMONY Exposed | Dr. Ankit Shah Explains

The Foundation Is Cracking

At the core of Dr. Shah’s thesis lies the notion that the global financial system, as it stands today, is built on illusion—a carefully orchestrated system that benefits a few at the cost of many. The dollar, serving as the world’s reserve currency since World War II, has allowed the United States to export inflation while importing real goods and services. This advantage stems from the 1971 delinking of the dollar from the gold standard, granting the US an unchecked ability to print money at will.

This has resulted in a lifestyle funded by debt—a hegemony maintained through military power and financial coercion, rather than genuine economic strength.

De-Globalization in Disguise

The romanticized concept of globalization—that of a free flow of goods, people, and capital—is, in reality, heavily one-sided. Western nations restrict access to their markets, education systems, and labor opportunities, even as they demand open access elsewhere. Indian companies, for instance, struggle to export freely or secure equitable global market shares, while Western giants thrive in Indian markets.

Thus, globalization was never truly global, but a model designed to preserve Western economic supremacy under the guise of fairness and progress.

The Education-Employment Trap

Another cornerstone of this system is the education-to-job pipeline, which Dr. Shah argues was intentionally created to suppress entrepreneurship. He likens it to a glorified form of modern slavery, where students are saddled with debt, pushed into corporate jobs, and systematically discouraged from risk-taking or innovation. The ultimate goal? To ensure a continuous supply of compliant workers who never question the structure.

Why the Dollar Is in Danger

The US economy has become increasingly reliant on consumption, funded not by productivity but by cheap capital and debt-fueled lifestyles. Families are disintegrating, birth rates are declining, and real productivity—defined as human value creation—is in freefall.

Attempts at de-dollarization by global leaders like Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi were swiftly met with military interventions, proving that the dollar’s dominance is not economic, but militaristic. However, as alliances shift, the ability to enforce this dominance weakens.

According to Dr. Shah, if de-dollarization accelerates—especially via new alliances, trade in local currencies, or gold-backed alternatives—the dollar could plummet to as low as ₹3 within the next five years, from its current level above ₹80. Such a crash would shake global markets and devastate sectors reliant on US dollar billing, including India’s massive IT and services industries.

The Illusion of Freedom

What was presented as opportunity—urbanization, western-style education, stock market investments—was actually a brilliantly marketed dependency model, ensuring people remained tied to the system. The so-called freedom of modern economies hides a controlled ecosystem, where even education is monetized to serve the corporate sector.

Dr. Shah calls this a “soft slavery”, where not only are individuals economically trapped, but entire nations are ensnared in systems they didn’t build, with rules they didn’t write.

What Comes Next? A Time of Reckoning or Renewal

While the forecast may seem grim, it also opens new doors. If the US dollar loses its stranglehold, the global financial system could reset toward multipolarity, with gold, regional currencies, or decentralized finance stepping in. For countries like India, this could be a rare opportunity to realign economically, politically, and culturally—but only if we first understand how deep the existing illusion goes.
