China has just launched the petro-yuan, a gold-backed currency directly challenging the US dollar signaling the beginning of the end of the American greenback.

The U.S. came off of the gold standard! If my memory serves me right gold was going for around $27 an ounce then! Just think, even with inflation, what an American dollars value would be in today's market!
ReplyDeleteConsidering that $27 was a good week's wage back then...
ReplyDeleteI've been wondering what China's "checkmate" moment would be. I wonder if this is it?

ReplyDeleteThis is what happens when one side fantasizes about Communism with glee as the other stays complacent thinking the Constitution will prevent it. Meanwhile, both have been feeding the Communist beast with industry and technology for massive profits the Government didn’t steal enough of.
This will destroy the U.S. economy. 8 dollar gas, 5 dollar milk, 6 dollar bread.
SMH at all the bleeding heart Communist sympathizers.
Nixon took us off gold standard. $35 an once. It hasnt been that long ago.

ReplyDeleteChina's got to do something. DJT is stopping the one way flow of dollars into their country by way of massive trade deficits.
