If they want to keep the progressive nanny state alive, US leftists need to maintain US dollars as the worlds energy currency and the world’s reserve currency.
Bad for the dollar, bad for America.
Any deal with Iran, should mandate their use of the dollar.
India will return the money in beggars, thieves, murderers...a la Fidel Castro's move in sending US their jailbirds and poor folk "boat people."
Iran was FOOLISH not to get the BILLIONS up front. They know how the Indian government works. It was Iran's fault...all of it.
India doesn't HAVE enough rupees to take care of anyone but the corrupt government officials and employees.
Even I know THAT.
So, now the Ayatollahs are currency traders, huh?
Well, good luck, boys.
Over the last five years the Euro has lost 26% of its value against the US Dollar.
For the last 12 months, the Euro has been roughly stable against the US Dollar, at about $1.10 USD.
The 10 year US Treasury is paying 1.8%.
The 10 year German Government Bond is paying 0.3%, and Europe is being swarmed over by millions of Third World rent seekers.
So, yeah, better scarf up those Euros, Iran!
How about a cold,hard slap in the face instead!
Sorry Iran, I’m the James Carville of FreeRepublic; do you need another cold, hard slap yet.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
