The Statists and their apparatchiks masquerading as the U.S. government have long thought that deficits don't matter because the dollar is the worlds reserve currency. Now we're all getting a front row seat as Triffin's Dilemma plays itself out. The elites know what's coming which is why the WEF has their Great Reset Plan. The apparatchiks can't change the laws of economics they can only delay the day of reckoning. The Brit's learned this lesson the hard way once they joined the fracas that became WW1. After WW2 which was essentially just a continuation of WW1 the Pound had lost its status as the world reserve currency. Most people don't realize that the single biggest U.S. export, by a long shot, since 1971 has been the dollar. When this sea of dollars decides to return home it will make this current bout of inflation look like child's play.
Weaponizing the dollar is truly playing Russian Roulette.
I can't recall any US sanction imposed on a foreign government changing any policy that inspired the sanction in the first place. I do recall laws and regulations restricting trading with the enemy. In WW I, the USG seized the US assets of aspirin maker Bayer, a German firm. Now, we're seizing Russian yachts.
Although I agree with you, Bill, on most everything, I wish you would stop calling the elite "incompetent." They are not incompetent so much as they are "corrupt!" It is not incompetence that is killing freedom and prosperity in America, it is corruption. The elite have been quite competent at sabotaging the natural rights of the people, altering the workings of the government that supposedly guaranteed those rights, destroying the work ethic and rugged individualism of Americans via entitlements and welfare and all sorts of other dependencies, dividing Americans via race/ethnicity/gender/wealth/etc., and instituting a system that insures a continuous flow of wealth from the few remaining producers, via taxes and inflation, to the parasites at the top. I actually think the elite are extremely competent and their long-term plan to achieve a one-government world in which they feed off of the masses forever -- is feeling uncomfortably close to fruition. The antics we've seen from government over COVID, and now Ukraine, are about sabotage -- sabotaging America. The elite are corrupt. But, they'll be happy to hide behind the veil of well-intended incompetence, if someday necessary, to save their necks. If they ever go on trial for this mess, by which I mean their untold economic and other crimes against America and humanity, it will be yet another crime if they are merely labeled "incompetent."
Yes, it may be too late. But the show isn't over yet. We have much to suffer before the end cleansing comes, and if you think for a moment we stand a chance, just turn on any news channel, pick up any local paper, or turn on your pc.
Yes, it's all fake news, and filled with lies and deceit, but most of our dear neighbors believe in what they see, and that is where all faults in the system lie.
The truth is the everyday life you live. Your days are filled with family, work, stress, happiness, sadness, white friends, black friends, asian and Spanish friends, good folk and bad and what is real. This life will soon be extinguished, and the life the elites have created will take center stage.
Yes, it's definitely too late many, but not all. Most will continue their march to the showers, but those who know where the trains lead, move to a different station.
Protect your right to defend yours. Protect yourself, your family, your friends and those you know are good.
Your God given logic leads you to understanding good and evil. Just take an honest truthful look at the "Democrat, Progressive, Socialist, Communist" controlled towns, cities, states and nations. Extreme levels of ignorance, hatred, murder and corruption. Yes, this is what hell looks like. This is the world the psychopathic elite want for you.
Sit back and enjoy the show? Or fight back and make a difference? It's up to you my friends, but as always, God Bless America, and those who fight for her!!!!
I wish the rest of the world had boycotted the United States when we did the same thing Russia is doing. Our actions in Vietnam were no different than what we are seeing in Ukraine. World wide boycotts are an excellent way to change some minds without overt violence.

The lockdowns were never really about the covid

Hi, Have you read the Swedish approach to COVID 19 - The Herd: how Sweden chose its own path through the worst pandemic in 100 years
by Johan Anderberg and Alice E. Olsson | - Very ineteresting
First and foremost, don't EVER quote the Washington Examiner, it's a rag and akin to quoting Fox "News".
Oh, so WAPO, NYT and the rest of the Marxist propagandists at ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, Bloomberg, et al are to be believed, really?
May I add the National Enquirer as well, while I'm at it?
And I forgot one of the worst: NBC
Yup, that's pretty much what I'm saying.

So Bill, is it too late already for the dollar? Or are we in month to month status at this point. Is there a way back?
Yes, it may be too late. But the show isn't over yet. We have much to suffer before the end cleansing comes, and if you think for a moment we stand a chance, just turn on any news channel, pick up any local paper, or turn on your pc.
