BREAKING! Fears rising Iran deal may kill U.S. Dollar.....Oil will drop to 20.00 Dollars a Barrel......
Concerns are rising in US media over a much-feared shock to the dollar once Iran and P5+1 reach a deal over the Iranian nuclear energy program.

The dollar is getting perilously close to losing its status as the world’s reserve currency, and the nuclear deal with Iran could push it over the edge, warned the Patriot Post journal on its website on Sunday.

Iran and P5+1 are working on the draft of a final agreement over the Iranian nuclear energy program. The agreement – that has a deadline of June 30th – envisages the removal of certain sanctions against Iran in return for certain steps by the country to limit its nuclear energy activities.

The prospects for the removal of the anti-Iran sanctions have already encouraged global businesses to look for potential areas of investment in Iran – what many believe could eventually strengthen the Iranian economy, boost the rial and at the same time undermine the dollar.

“For years much has been written about the risks from debasing our currency as a result of deficit-spending, debt-accumulation and reckless money-printing. What’s vital to grasp now is that Americans will experience an abrupt decline in living standards once the dollar loses its status as the world’s reserve currency,” the Post added in its article.

It further warned that the dollar’s demise would also precipitate a new financial crisis — one that would make the 2008 collapse look like a summer storm.

“The US is a relatively benign economic world power. No one knows what it would be like if, say, the Chinese yuan becomes the reserve currency for global trading. But it’s apt to be far less benevolent than the dollar norm we all now just take for granted,” it added.

These are chicken-hawks clucking that if we don't go to war the US dollar will collapse and no longer be the US reserve currency which means no more play money to finance all the wars and military industrial complex... that's the neo-con nightmare.

The reality is that the US dollar is funny money being printed at an exponential rate, nothing can save the dollar, even though the Us seems to have been following a policy where if you destabilize the rest of the world and the rest of the world looks like shit, then the US looks great. Perhaps the bump in the dollar is the result of Arab spring, Ukraine and financed terrorism.

My nightmare is that the neo-cons will try to save the dollar using twisted logic and push us into another war, where China and the other countries pull the rug out from under the US dollar and we wind up like Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan. Fighting a war on multiple fronts with depleting resources.

And if we have a president like Obama and if he refuses to use nukes when the time comes, he may just sacrifice all of us by refusing to push the button or worse yet blow the nukes in their silos.

IMO that is what the TPTB want. A defeated US so that they can take away our nukes because in the end once their global position is solidified, the only thing that could take them down would be an uncontrolled nuclear war or huge natural disaster.

I fear that the TPP is a military alliance/pact between non-BRIC nations to counter the BRICS and is a step towards WWIII fully breaking out.

the dollar is on its deathbed, has been for long enough that it's inevitable.

$20/barrel might hurt US oil companies, but it would be a huge boost for the rest of the economy.

This might be a good thing.

Re: BREAKING! Fears rising Iran deal may kill U.S. Dollar.....Oil will drop to 20.00 Dollars a Barrel......
its very much simpler than that when you realize that the energy commodity trumps currency commodities..we should have had nuclear based electricity on a mass scale on this planet but since the dragon(natural gas/gas)disapproves heartily we haven't...its all about a free market approach to energy supply which establishes an international middle class, stable economy..this is what putin has wanted from the start which is why he spent so much time with iran and their nuclear program...

but the energy beast and their international banking/ intel alliance have historically worked against nuclear thru their epa puppets, sabatoging nuclear thru chernobyl and 3 mile island, and finally the charade of nuclear being used by iran fro weopons...that iranian leader whose name i can't spell and putin were trying to get a free market economy going within their respective countries, but the zionist energy pitbull in israel and its oligrach daddy in Moscow worked against..and most likely the oil millionaire jihadist mullahs in iran chipped in..
