We are facing a declining dollar (IMO), because there is a group of nations in a concerted effort to destroy us in any way they possibly can. These nations are not democracies and the continued success of the US makes their dreams of dictatorship difficult.
....Curiously, these same nations attack Israel ...and for the same reason..
They have attacked us militarily, starting more recently with the embassy takeover in Iran in 1979, and again many times up to 9/11 and will again whenever possible.
They are attacking us irregularly, since 1973 through the oil cartel, not to mention such incidents as the "Pueblo" intelligence ship and the airplane forced down
into Red China and stripped, before demanding that the US take the plane out piece by piece.
They have been attacking us with massive counterfeiting of our currency for decades, esp Iran & N Korea..
They have themselves, and by willing puppet states, turned the UN into a "hate America" organization since the 1960s, working to stymie us in any way possible.
They are attacking us presently, through the monetary system.
Their dictators travel the world, verbally attacking us whenever possible, beginning decades ago.
Who are these nations ?...Obviously North Korea, Red China, Cuba, Venezuela, several Arab states and now, again a reformulated Russia that is
quickly falling back into enslavement (IMO) !
One cannot blame any one US administration of the last 50 years, since these dirty tricks have been played on all of them.
..Let's be fair and blame the dictators !
I have listed only a few ways they have attacked us and have continued to do so for more than half a century..
Judging by many opinions voiced here, the best way to fight this enemy is to be bickering between ourselves, join the enemy in attacking our leaders and "disunite"
the United States as completely as possible..
Isn't that what's been happening here ? ..just opining...
