The dollar is rising against other currencies to levels not seen in decades, hurting other countries and the U.S.

This episode of What’s Ahead lays out why the greenback is rocketing and why that’s a symptom of bad economic and monetary policies.

The confusion over this is leading to unnecessary pain for everyone.
