This sort of jawboning has been going on for years. The world economy is not going to drop the dollar anytime soon. ---

well, according to cpi current inflation is 5% a year. And that is suppose to be during a time of deflation. So yes, I would say thats pretty bad inflation. All this arguing is stupid. We will certainly find out within a year what the answer is. ---

Look at the chart in post #18. The “jawboning” of the past didn’t have the current numbers to back it up. I am not saying we will definately be there in a year but, if things don’t change in a big way we just might be there. ---

No, there’s not a illuminati conspiracy new world financial order.

Keep in mind that a lot of “imaginary” money from the stock market (far more than $1tn) disappeared due to lost values, so it’s not quite as dire as you make it out to be. It’s not a government/media conspiracy to destroy America by deliberately hiding this stuff with intentional sidetracking. > > Zimbabwe’s problems were completely different from what we’re going through, and while we might experience some mild inflation, to imply that we’re going to see 10,000,000% inflation (or whatever it worked out to be) like Zimbabwe is just crazy. > > :picard: > > As for guns and bullets and canned food, do what you need to do, just don’t spread this crap around and convince people to start buying Euros, Yen, Yuan, or Pounds. The only way the dollar’s going to collapse is if the U.S. population at large gets paranoid and starts acting irrationally… which is exactly what these worst-case-scenario write-ups make people want to do. Control yourselves, stay the course. wow I actually agree with you for once. I think Hell just froze over lol. ---

i’m not going to bother reading what you guys typed since it’s getting too hard to figure out who is an idiot and who isn’t… the line is blurred because people are right on accident now… however… the subject in the article is several years in the making. What’s more is that it doesn’t just ‘happen’. And by that i mean the raising of the subject, not the actual dumping of the US dollar as the reserve currency. Your collective perception of the situation and how information becomes available is carefully engineered. If this subject being brought up with the UN caught the wrong people off guard the people doing the off-guarding would be caught without their guards and offed… ya feel?
