Doesn’t matter… Red state governors and legislators passed the uniform commercial code.

Well, I wouldn't panic just yet. But I do think that the powers that be have been smug in their taking advantage of the fact that the dollar has been the reserve currency for going on a century. This has allowed the federal government to run up a huge debt, secure in the knowledge that there will always be someone willing to buy up our debt.

Someday, that situation will end. Not today, not tomorrow. But someday. Then there will be a reckoning. It is folly to think otherwise.

“BRICS Emerges As New Global Powerhouse, US Dollar Faces Uncertain Future”

Not sure what the Neocons were thinking when they disconnected Russia from SWIFT, but anyone with a brain knew this would happen. But then again, the Neocon hatred towards Russia is SO STRONG, that they simply don’t care what happens to their countries, as this and many other things show.

Other thoughts on BRICS

China and India hate each other. Russia is at war with much of the world. True, Russia has gold. But they’ll invest it in a currency anyone can use from the goodness of their hearts? No. Each natin would need to give up their currency at the going rate of refined gold, plus some. This is a retail transaction so how will the country benefit? Nobody wants Yuan, Rupees, or Rubles. Neither South Africa or Brazil has an economy big enough to have a trade surplus needed to fund a currency. Everyone involved in BRICS is trying to get something from the others. Nobody wins. The BRICS currency is fear porn.

In order to have a currency you need a financial policy. Where will the gold backing the currency be held? How much currency will be printed? Any sovereign country can print a currency and the value of it relies on that country’s reputation. So now we have five or more countries who will print currency? That sounds stable. Or, maybe just one country will print currency. China wants it to be them. Ditto Russia, India, Brazil...I’m seeing a few problems here.

BTW, this is what the Euro was supposed to be. Less than 20% of the world’s trade is done in Euros and almost all of it is within the EU.

This move away from the US Dollar needs for 2 things to happen.

(1) Hyperinflation of the US Dollar (this should be properly called Dollar Destruction; and will most likely be caused by federal deficit spending)

(2) Trust in other places like Moscow and Beijing being where sincerely fair justice can be obtained in the Courts by aggrieved parties on commerce transactions.

The corrupt folks in the Congress in DC are doing their best to destroy the Dollar through their continued insistence to keep raising the Debt Ceiling and spending more than the government brings in revenue.

But what are the regimes in Beijing and Moscow doing to be places of fairness where aggrieved parties can sincerely seek and get justice fairly? There’s a big reason why so many companies incorporate in Delaware. And the USA is a better place than many others to seek a redress of grievances and hopefully get fairness.

Now of course if you interview Putin or Xi to ask them if they are corrupt their answer would be “no”. But do you trust them? The Dollar’s status as “reserve” currency relies on trust.

BRICS are a Global Powerhouse?

Sorry, this is ridiculous.

Why would anyone trust five Socialist dictatorships, or semi-dictatorships, more than they trust the US Dollar or the Euro?

And, if I only trust gold, I can buy physical gold, or gold futures, with highly liquid USDs or Euros.

The usmdollar has its own inherent issues regardless of brics

That said, theres no way these 5 major countries will stay together with a currency. Many have animosity towards another and i just dont see them making it work long term despite the dollars problems.

Over 95 % of the inventions are still being pumped out by America and the west.

All others are parasites.

They’ll sit there as they never developed the infrastructure that the WHITE CHRISTIANS did.
