How wasteful!

Anyhow, today I'm going to resume using a currency backed by oil and nukes, which encourages consumption on purpose. I will then either exploit workers by investing in a for-profit business, or get poorer.

But someday, in the future, economics will work the way I expect them to. That's when I'll switch to something better!

Russia has had oil and nukes and it didn't stop the ruble from collapsing in the 90s

Maybe reexamine your assumptions

Oil and nukes won't stop the dollar from collapsing either...
