There's another piece of this puzzle that everyone keeps forgetting...

Notice how the U.S.A. has strategically moved military assets away from the Middle-East and into the South Pacific region over the last few years...

Shooting war is always something to consider when currency wars begin...as shooting wars are usually not far behind...

Unless...........


The U.S. is still the largest (on paper at least) holder of Gold Bullion. It may just force the U.S. to go back to the gold standard in order to compete (dominate). There is still the item of no official accounting of our gold supply.
But, as long as we can say that we have more gold backing our dollar than anyone else, we still remain the fiat currency of the world.

This brings up a whole plethora of questions about what happens next in PM markets, stock market, and the economy.

I'm not smart enough to know how the shock waves would affect everyting, but, people should start thinking about what the net effect(s) will be, because that is the first response the U.S. will make.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30264892


NOOOO!!!!!!

Read the actual gold confiscation document, carefully, and you will notice that gold was bought by the FED at 20 dollars and then the price was immediately increased to 34 dollars.

The gold may or may not still be in the fort, and if it was, showing it would be reassuring to the world, but they dont, and the bookkeepping value is unchanged for decades, so it's not there, but the most important point is the gold became the FEDS and not the publics.

Read the last 3 words in the confiscation document.
They are novus ordus seclorum

It's not a nail in the coffin of the Dollar...It would be China's coffin getting the nail love.

NATO controls who can buy what from the global trade system and what is used to buy it.

China is a net importer that is sustained by it's net exports to NATO.

If that stops...China turns into a net exporter...of Gold.

Until they run out and their entire country collapses.

The source of this information is Jim Willie, and though an admitted doomer, he is still a respected source of economic information. The timing of this information also coincides with Jim Sinclair's recent announcement that gold and silver are set for a moonshot after "this last takedown" by Central Banks ends.

Combine the information that China is now admitting they are launching a gold backed currency for world trade, with upcoming Basel III regs, and many other economic pitfalls, such as the fiscal cliff and debt ceiling negotiations, all pointing to this Spring as a date of severe stress on the dollar.

Right now everything is pointing at a window of March thru June, however that could be pushed back, depending on circumstances and Central Bank intervention. People around here know that I have a gloomy outlook on future economic conditions, but I don't do a lot of prognostication because there are so many measures they can do to intervene if the timing of a collapse isn't on their schedule, but that said... Keep a close eye on the proposed circulation date for China's gold backed currency! You won't have a lot of time after that...

The admission by China is however one of the signals I was waiting for...Keep your shit screwed tight this Spring, it could get Western around here...

The typical human reaction to any infection, vermin, danger, or toxicity is to stand back, to isolate the agent, to trap it, to prevent its further spread or release, then to remove it in a safe secure way if possible using trained professionals. Eventually decisions must be made on the level of acceptable risk on the removal, like what is willing to be lost or damaged or killed in the process. Risk analysis, cost trade-offs, and minimization decisions must be evaluated and executed. The toxic agent in global trade, global banking, and global bond market is the USDollar. In 2009, the Jackass began making a certain firm point. Those nations that depart from the entire USDollar system early will be the leading nations in the next chapter, with stronger foundations, richer solvency, emerging economies, healthier financial markets, efficient credit engines, growing wealth, stronger political helm activity, and better functioning systems generally. Imagine a contaminated blood system that infects, corrupts, and destroys all interior organs from the spread of the toxin. Those nations that stick with the crumbling USDollar system stubbornly will find a horrible fate with devastating effects, rampant economic damage, broken financial markets, sputtering credit engines, tremendous loss of wealth, wrecked supply lines, poverty spreading like wildfire, ruined political structures, social disorder, isolation from the rest of the world, and a fast ticket to the Third World. That is EXACTLY what is happening in the last several months.

The Chinese like all exporters are dependant on capital as are all the world's nations.

The short term solution to what is coming is to learn how to grow something eat or barter, raise something to eat or barter, or make something of practical value that you or others will need.

And 2 more comments: The show Amish Mafia is totally faked and has been created to dis the Amish lifestyle. Most of them don't even have tv's to see what is being perpetrated against them, and even if they did, they would just turn the other cheek.

The U.S.D.A. has declared war on the Amish and their farms.

Why is it so important to try to destroy the Amish? Because they can survive without allegiance to the Beast. They must be defeated for the Beast to be able to rule with an iron fist.
