Now, here's an interesting thought - should China's yuan one day surpass the American dollar as the world's reserve currency, the face of global finance will no longer be Washington's or Lincoln's or Franklin's - it'll be Mao's, quite possibly the greatest mass murderer in history and a loathsome megalomaniac if there ever was one. Will we all be expected to dutifully cower, pretending that's not the case? Nothin' to see here, just move along. Ah, the glorious days that lie ahead.
