While foreign investors have been increasing their stake in US lately,
they are in no position to change US domestic or foreign policy, yet,
and not likely to in the future. But because of the trade imbalance
foreigners have huge dollar surpluses and may want to buy up the US.
Unfortunately there are limits as to what they can do with those
dollars.
SEE: Michael Hudson:
American diplomats have said that they won't allow central banks to use
their dollars to buy US corporations, for instance. When OPEC countries
proposed this after 1973, the US Treasury reportedly informed them that
this would be considered an act of war.

We are in Phase II now. Phase I took place in the 1970s. SEE: Kaleem
Hussain and about a million others.
In August 15, 1971, The U.S. Government had defaulted on its payments
when foreigners demanded payment for their dollars in gold. . . . It
had extracted an enormous amount of economic goods from the rest of the
world, with no intention or ability to return those goods, and the
world was powerless to respond-. . . .

I just watched Batman last night, so the Joker's face is freshly
imprinted. The problem is that the American Joker is printing dollars
and flooding the world with them . . . and as in Phase I, they have no
intention of redeeming those dollars with anything tangible, as should
be obvious from the trade deficit.
If you think Americans should benefit by theses schemes, you are
right; but if you think American workers (80% of the population) will
benefit, you have been watching too much Disney. What the Elite need is
a compliant workforce of maids servants and burger flippers at the
lowest pay possible. That's what the New York Times article was about,
although I am at a loss to explain why, now, they would actually tell
the truth about such things, when they have been lying for the past 40
years. But that's the Times for you. Maybe it was faked. I didn't see a
URL.
If all goes well, and everything seems to be going smoothly from where
I sit, then we we should enter Phase III in a few years. Heard any
rumors about a housing bubble lately? Haha. Well, don't worry. A little
bit of a war with Iran will take care of that in short order. Killing
people has always given the US economy a boost when it counts. But
eventually, maybe 6 or 10 years from now the US dollar will wither.
Do you know what happens when a world currency crashes? Mmmmm? Well, I
suppose I really should button up, but I can't resist: you get a Brand
NEW currency. After the Money Boyz have huddled with the Joker, and
feigned exasperation sufficiently long, they will reach into a hat and
pull out ... VOILA ... an infinitely WORSE currency, but one which will
do away with the Federal Reserve as we know it and establish a Pure
Fiat currency suitable for worldwide distribution/domination. It's
going to be a gem I guarantee. Executive salaries will explode into the
stratosphere, and because laborers will not get actual salary CUTS,
they will not notice that -- RELATIVELY speaking -- they are getting
poorer, so they will be lulled into an opium fog and will scarcely
notice that more and more things are simply unaffordable. . . . until
one day they will find that phones and electricity cost too much. It
will be too late then. But then again -- it's probably too late now.
I wrote a few articles in plain English to try to get across some
details
1 The Bubble Machine - Financing the war machine stimulates the
economy and fights recession and depression. Killing Arabs so the
people in Malibu can DOUBLE their money on that trailer-home they
bought on South Point.

2 Expansionism and Americanization
What is it that drives this dollar Expansionism? Is it normal?
Natural? Nobody has ever explained that very well. There is an answer.
And you can verify this with your own experience -- this is not rocket
science. It's common sense

3 Money Grows On Trees
In plain English, what is money, really, and how does it compare
with the shit we use today.

4 Dollar References and Resources
Not posted yet but will send it to anyone interested - There are maybe
a dozen good proposals, which I list, on how to change our money
systems. If nobody gets involved and we leave it to the Money Boyz then
you can preview your next fiat currency here -- it's already designed
and waiting for you. And it's CHRISTIAN.
5 War as a Business
And business is good. Piracy was a business. Gangsterism is a business.
So is war.
