Quote from asiaprop:
despite the lack of any valid basis of this thread, I get the impression that YOU are the one who brings up some "anti Amercian-agenda" debate each time, and its tiring to say the least. Why does the abandoning of the USD as major reserve currency have anything to do with being anti-American???
I dont care what the OP or the blog poster wrote/said but I find it a bit childish of you that you seem to spot some anti Americanism behind each corner. That the USD will be abandoned sooner or later as THE major reserve currency is, I think, inevitable and should not even be debated. The US will never return to its real-product capacity again, this was passed on to the likes of China and soon India among others. The goal for the US and other major industrialized (what a misleading term in this age) nations is to broaden their edge in the most valuable commodity of our age and the next 100 years, INFORMATION and SERVICES.
So, calm down, nobody is shooting missiles or rockets at your beautiful American castle.
He sees things that aren't there.
I hate what's happening to the U.S. right now, but you'll never find anyone who's more patriotic.
Patriotism doesn't mean one turns a blind eye to the most critical problems facing one's country. In fact, it means facing those problems, engaging in debate, and trying to urge rational solutions.
The true Patriots are people like Ron Paul. Have you ever seen anyone as critical of what this nation's central bank or treasury department are doing?
Would anyone call Ron Paul anything but a patriot?
