This adds up with moves in Korea. Their is a major shift in the power structure. The US is not the power it was back then. And the other powers know it. Exploitation at its finest. Hunker down, it's going to be a long ride. Euro goes down first, then 2 weeks later the dollar is dead!! you think the illuminati created the dollar with all the occult symbology to destroy it and let another currency around the world prosper, don't kid yourself when the dollar dies its game over for the whole financial world.  |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 37237241 United States04/02/2013 03:37 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is a hard argument to make that the US dollar would be "dead in 2 weeks" if the Euro fails. The European Nations would be looking for a new currency to depend upon until they get a new national one established, and the dollar is the natural remedy for that case. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24028110 On the one hand, it is obvious that the US as a whole would be affected if the Euro died, because the EU is the biggest importer of US goods, so our already declining manufacturing base would suffer, and unemployment could go up while Europe flounders in currency issues. But, as stated above, these nations would need some sort of medium of exchange, and there are lots of dollars floating around and widely accepted. Still, the Chinese Yuan could fill the void as well. And if it did, and now OPEC is sending more oil to Yuan-based countries (I know, unlikely, but still, work with me here), then the dollar could be dropped as the "petrol dollar" and then we would be screwed. Of course, the dollar is supported by the full might of the US military. So again, unlikely. Agreed. But your last sentence is the most illuminating: the full might of the U.S. military props up the U.S dollar as the world's reserve currency. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 37237241 United States04/02/2013 03:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Scandinavian countries join w/ Germany in a gold-backed northern Euro. U.S. Dollar goes bye-bye. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12168574 The 'Northern Euro' will have to be militarily backed up. Currently, Germany and the EU rely on NATO [where the U.S. military does the bulk of the heavy lifting, certainly not Germany] and the U.S. nuclear umbrella primarily, but also the French and British nukes. Germany is an export driven country, and the Euro and EU has really benefited this in many ways. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 36545374 United Kingdom04/02/2013 04:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What only a few starting to get is; We have no chance against the BRICS the way things are now. Remember the announcement to bring down trading barriers between US and Europe? If we unite into a “Commercial” sort of NATO, we might stand a chance. It’s a numbers game, with India and China winning by shear buying power. We have some trade sanctions in place that defy all logic. Did you know that we cannot buy American made Wrangler Jeans in Europe?  I have to send money to some friends in the states to get me some proper Jeans, no joke. If I would like to get an American car, it will be a single Import = doubling the price. It’s not that we don’t like American products; we are just not allowed to have them it seems.  |
