what I meant was, America has a cultural tradition which states if you want anything you have to give up everything and fight for it. Black Americans who came here as slaves often don't share this culture but new Africans who come here willingly are burning with a passion for wealth. So it can't possibly genetic, or can it be? Do risk takers pass down there dna? (not real dna, just cultural dna.) So in USA you have a vast majority of the population that came from somewhere else and came here willingly (or like my family by the skin of their teeth) as opposed to the other cultures we are trying to americanize who have never known any other land and have been fighting against the same enemies forever and see a president as a step way down from a king.
Dozens of retired generals, admirals back Iran nuclear deal
Three dozen retired generals and admirals released an open letter Tuesday supporting the Iran nuclear deal and urging Congress to do the same.
Calling the agreement “the most effective means currently available to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons,” the letter said that gaining international support for military action against Iran, should that ever become necessary, “would only be possible if we have first given the diplomatic path a chance.”

Regarding reserve currency.
How does being the reserve currency help the US citizen. It did not. It allowed the owners of the Federal Reserve to create and print trillions of dollars for private accounts.
The world wide demand for the dollar would have driven the value of the dollar up tremendously. We would be buying products from all over the world for pennies on 1960s dollars.
But, the Fed and its cronies had our country enforce the idea of the dollar being the oil currency via our military might. The dollar became the reserve currency because of our military might and because the Federal Reserve said so.
As the reserve currency the Federal reserve got to print and distribute trillons and trillions of dollars. These dollars were not dollars spent on behalf of tax payers but dollars printed out of thin air for the accounts of private institutions or people. (we have no idea where the money went) ... So much was printed that even though there was strong demand for the dollar we still had at least 700 percent inflation since the 1960s. You want to talk about the theft of wealth. The impact on our standard of living is not even fathomable.
Now don't be fooled into thinking these dollars were created by our overspending govt. Our govt borrowed all the money it overspent until the advent of QE just a few years ago. Our countries wealth was transferred through the creation and printing of trillions of dollars... for private accounts which got spent by the cronies and absorbed by the world... since the dollar was the reserve currency.
There is no way to put the genie back in the bottle but we should at least let our citizens to reap some of the reward for being the reserve currency.
We should eliminate federal reserve printing and bond purchases and income tax.
Perhaps the inflationary pressure caused by the deficit printing will be mostly absorbed by the growth of the world economy.
