I don't have full faith in the US Government. But the US Dollar is the money I'm able to use here in the USA to represent my trade of goods and services. So I'll use it. Even though I don't trust it to remain stable indefinitely.
In fact, I know that it's not a stable commodity. It fluctuates. And THAT - the fact that it fluctuates - is really the only thing I have full faith and trust in.
