No, as a matter of fact, a falling value for dollars against other currency is actually good (at least for the US) since it makes export cheaper and for a country with rich Natural Resources (like US), decreased value in the currency doesn't increase prices (since it doesn't have a need to import raw materials.)

However, this policy can make countries go into "currency wars" and yes that would be more likely to cause the WORLD economy to collapse.
