I have to wonder how fast the bottom could drop out and what desperate action we would take in an attempt to keep the dollar relevant..

I'm much more concerned about Mossad control over our government than the Petro-Dollar.

You know we did pretty good for 200 years without a Petro-Dollar. 

We won two world wars and put a man on the Moon without a Petro-Dollar.

It was backed by gold then...

It's backed by nothing now but military threats and actions...

And we are a net petroleum exporter now and we weren't then.

The GCS wouldn't be begging for currency swaps if it was worthless. They are not asking for currency swaps in Yuan.

You only have to be the slightly better than the alternative.

It will be  :aok

The person voted most likely to grief lock a thread has not posted in a few days. They either got put on time out, got hit by a bus, or actually found something better to do with their life.

So if we are civil and don't start stacking soap boxes we should be able to keep this thread open and civil discussion going for a bit.

I'm finding the historical and economic sides of this discussion interesting.

BRICS didn't exist then..

We weren't starting wars of choice illegally..

We are making it harder for the globe with our inflationary printing whose main reasons why is to keep the over extended American fat and happy and living beyond their means, exactly like our government is doing  ...

We might be the best choice now but if we continue to act like we have this year I wonder how long we will be..
