What about BRIC?
China’s not doing good. Russia isn’t.
I’m not sure I’d want to join that effort.
When this was being touted as the end of the dollar, I urged
folks to sit back and watch to make sure this was going to
work. It still may, but it’s not going to be an easy ride
> IMO.
My guess is that the BRICs currency idea will go like a session of the Indian Parliament: lot's of talk, talk, talk but nothing done because there is not enough bribe cash and favors to go around, with the next election reshuffling the cards of the world's largest multiparty democracy soon enough for another try. A too little appreciated virtue of democracy is that it tends to kill off new ideas by exhaustion through endless gasbaggery, bad ideas like the BRICs currency especially.
