I'm running a simulation of the world of 1945, and one of the players brought up the possibility of having the ICU and its supranational currency enacted.
I'm wondering how Alt History users would answer the following:
1. What possibility is there, from a POD of April 1945, of the ICU being adopted by the United States? What would Congress think (I assume quite a few congressmen and senators would oppose it)?
2. If adopted, what are the potential economic benefits and/or consequences during 1945-55?
