They rely on other countries using the Petrodollar, not buying oil. Once other countries move to another currency America will go bankrupt, and that isn't speculation, it's very much reality. America is doing everything to stop this.
It won't work though, the talk have already started happening. Americans better get used to the a lower standard is living because it's going to be impossible to increase moving standards under the current debt.

Lower? Bitch if we stop being a world power our standard of living will probably get higher. We can stop wasting all our resources on the military and propping up stupid shit and actually get some fucking healthcare.

And moving away from oil is a good way to move away from the petrodollar, too. (Not to mention better for our future.)
