When Bretton Woods was enacted after WW 2, the United States dollar became the world's reserve currency. 95% of the world currency use it as the middle man so to speak. It is now about 55% from what I have read. We broke away from Bretton Woods guarantee of using gold as a substitute for dollars in 1971 because we did not have the gold to pay people off on their investments if they wanted it. So a relationship with oil was instituted with the dollar and the currencies of the world became a basket with them adjusting daily. Saudi Arabia became our symbiotic partner. These reductions in the reserve status are death by a thousand cuts. We have had so many advantages and we whittle them away. These current domestic issues are part of the whole globalist doctrine. I tell you...tens of millions will die pretty quickly or live a new reality with a reduction of benefits forced on us by necessity. And that is just the start. This last few years with the government become Genghis Kahn like and the last year with the realities of declining nation not unlike the last empire Britain is pretty sad. We can change the course but some pain will be had and the architects of hate will promote their shit. We see it every day.
