Six months into the last year of normality, we push forward minute by minute, day by day unto the real point of contention that is arising. Engaged by enemies of the Republic and humanity daily, we strive forward fearless in the face of economic collapse, total war, government suppression and environmental disaster. Just as time marches on, so does the globalist agenda and their merciless engagement of human consciousness and quest to achieve a one world order, to them…a new world coming…in the words of George H.W Bush, “A New World Order”.
As the Federal Election Commission investigates Dr. Ron Paul’s Campaign For Liberty on false claims, Wall Street falls to it’s lowest point since Lehman Brother’s collapse. As the American Military forms a near perfect circle around Iran in preparation for another illegal war funded by disenfranchised tax payers, the U.N urges that the dollar should be replaced as the international standard due to it’s unreliability. While BP’s gaping wound continues to gush gallon by gallon of pollution unto the ocean and toxins into the air, talks of mass evacuation from the Gulf occur, and FEMA develops a game plan.
All the while the Canadian government detains peaceful activists racked up on false charges, and We Are Change chapters meet in restaurants and plan future peaceful activism to counter all of this. These are interesting times that we live in, but I am glad to say, that against all adversity, and the promise of dark times ahead, that above all, even in this Point Of Contention, that The Republic Is Rising!
Sam, your posts are full of raw emotion, and that's very good; especially compared to my analytical styling.
However, I must disagree with you on the choice of the dollar due to instability. Comparatively speaking, the dollar has been rock-solid compared to other currencies, until the subprime mortgage issue. Its value has declined, but declined steadily. There are two main reasons to choose the USD over other currencies. The most likely is that it is the most widely used currency in the world. OPEC still prices using the USD. This is beginning to change as many other countries diversify their portfolios, particularly into the Yen. But it is still the most commonly used currency in the world. The second thing is that the dollar is easily manipulatable. The second-most used currency, the EUR, is backed by the economies of the various countries of Europe, of which most are in turmoil. In contrast, the dollar is backed by the US, a country, until recently, that has made fiscally sound decisions. Plus, it's one country compared to many. If the choice was based on instability, they would have chosen an Asian currency or their own Euro.
If you meant "… the U.N urges that the dollar should be replaced in favor of a new international standard due to it’s unreliability." that's when my argument stands. If the dollar is picked for the new international currency, well, you would be right.
