"squeezing it with the same pressure the outside of a submarine would feel 500 feet below the waves"

- The same pressure anything would be experience at the same depth. Oh but it's a submarine, so much more intuitive.
- 500 ft is about 150m
- rho.h.g can be approximated as 1 bar per 10m

"pressurizing the gas to approximately 15 bar". Thank you.

I think you are confused. Allow me. The US gets to keep the dollar, no change there. The issue is the federal debt which is now heading up bigly, thanks to blagger boy's bill. It may head into very problematic territory if the promised GDP growth does not materialise alongside. Debt service will become too great. Printing money will follow and then it's inflation and you're heading to Zimbabwe. Meanwhile the greenback gets ditched; bad timing because we are just about at the point where China is starting to look like a reasonable alternative partner in comparison.
