Regarding Columbia's "catastrophizing," (never saw that word in the present continuous tense before), as well as the "starving" Gazans, I wonder when we will see the "Pro-Palestinian" encampments and street demos on behalf of the courageous Gazans now demonstrating AGAINST Hamas. I am not holding my breath.
There's no construing, the regulating the value part is right there in the text of Article I: "The Congress shall have Power...To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures." It's not an obligation but it is an enumerated power.

What is the basis for your statement that Congress should regulate the U.S. dollar's value?
Article I of the Constitution contains that enumerated power.
Thanks.
I guess you construe giving Congress power "to coin money" as giving Congress the obligation to regulate the U.S. dollar's value.
