Crash the Dollar?

December 13, 2014 Exclusive From AFP 2 Comments

• U.S. interventionism has China, Russia allying to prevent WW3.

By Olga Belinskaya —

“Russia and China are pushing the U.S. into a currency crisis,” squealed The Washington Times on November 18. The article went on to claim that Russia and China have been acting in concert to create a “de-Americanized world” by dethroning the dollar as the international reserve currency. But what the Times failed to mention is that the Russians say they want to collapse the dollar for the sake of peace.

Reserve currency status has afforded the United States near-limitless borrowing and control of foreign economies that rely on the dollar for credit and business. Recently, though, a number of countries, especially those with strong economies such as the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa), announced a fund to establish a new financial system and central bank that is independent of the dollar.

Egon von Greyerz, the founder of Matterhorn Asset Management out of Switzerland, told King World News.com that the dollar is free-falling because fewer parties are using it for reserves for conducting trade and for investment purposes.

“The consequence in the next few years will be that the dollar, which is only backed by massive debts, will continue the decline to its intrinsic value of zero,” he said.

So what is the plan?

A high-ranking Russian official claims that the U.S. intends to start a world war in order to restore its dominance. Sergey Glazyev, the top economic aide to Russian nationalist President Vladimir Putin, penned an article—never translated into English—for the newspaper Argumenti Nedeli on June 10, 2014. Glazyev wrote that the U.S. and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization want Russia to invade Ukraine, but so far Russia has refused because a world war could be the result in Europe.

“Historical experience shows that [World War II] in Europe was an important source of economic recovery and political power for the United States,” wrote Glazyev.

The world wars drained capital, resources and minds from warring Europe, he wrote. Another world war would achieve many objectives, including the fact that a further weakened Europe would need to rely on America, which will force Europe to accept more free trade and increase military spending for the benefit of the military-industrial-banking complex.

To prevent a world war and save the economies of Russia and China, Glazyev proposes crashing the dollar.

Glazyev calls for the creation of a broad anti-dollar alliance of countries willing and able to drop the dollar from international trade and currency reserves.

He also advocates treating financial holdings that are denominated in dollars as junk securities and argues that regulators should require such holdings to be backed with collateral.

Who will win this battle for world domination, asks Glazyev—China and Russia or the United States and the New World Order?

At 4um Title: 3 Reasons the Dollar is Dead: Ever since Nixon took the dollar off of the gold standard, it lost its intrinsic value of being a note redeemable for gold.

The more I see of that "intrinsic value" cliche, the more it sounds like mumbo jumbo to me. So what if a government doesn't redeem dollars itself for gold? That doesn't mean they can't still be used to acquire gold elsewhere and other items too. The main problems, imo, are 1. the interest/debt based Fractional Reserve fiasco and 2. prices are way too high.

Edited last sentence.

1. This is true. Ultimately, it is the purchasing power of the dollar which can be used.

Right now, the FED is becoming alarmed at the prospect of deflation. Falling prices are a threat to the entire economy, but would be a boon to consumers.

2. The FED is a fiasco. No complaints on that one. Prices are indeed way too high. Deflation is on the horizon.

...2. prices are way too high.

The natural tendency for technology is for quality to improve and prices to go down. For commodities (depending on technology) the price tends toward stability in the relationship of prices between commodities, E.G a dozen eggs = a loaf of bread more or less over time.

If the cost of bread AND eggs and everything else has increased ten fold in your lifetime the only variable is the value of the currency you are trading.

Hint: If prices are too high it could be anybody's fault but some SOB is robbing us. If the value (purchasing power) of the dollar is falling the GOVT and banksters are robbing us.

I can't see much of the calculators page on my computer but was able to study the 2nd site. Not being much of a goldbug, I have trouble understanding their objectives. It seems to me that they're most concerned with taking as much of their money out of circulation as they can possibly afford to do, thereby stagnating or crashing the economy. By claiming dollars should/must be cashed in for gold on demand from US Treasury holdings (instead of any number of other places they could conveniently go to exchange their money for that), what I think they really mean is:

They want to accumulate stashes of gold as their personal, private-investment/"savings accounts" to increase their financial "net worth" projections, rather than spend it as currency, and they expect that the easiest, safest, fastest, cheapest way for them to increase the value of their "spare" dollars that they don't much need for living expenses would be if the government acted as their gold-broker and converted their money into the escalating market prices of that commodity for them without a broker fee.

That's about the gist of it as far as I've been able to determine, anyway, although I'm sure many confirmed goldbugs would protesteth all of that exceedingly.

Various clarification edits.
