Read again brother. It should make sense. I want people to ditch dollar and look at other means of trade as well (88% of global trade happens in USD today). If they ditch dollar, the dollar loses strength.
The US also can help by Anti-immigration policies. That will help countries/people to get disenchanted faster.
Lots of magical thinking, and for that magic to work you have to ignore a lot of the inhumane reasons why one should not just follow what you propose.
Really, why should the Muslims that do think that democracy is an idea that deserves to risk one’s life only gets them the very same countries that advocate for more democracy to close their doors to the people that followed our ideals?
The disenchantment you wish is not the one that you will get.
The fact that you cannot read for comprehension does not mean that your “ideas” have not been debated. Added bonus: this is the Pit, where we get to call you names too. Dumbass.
I have no idea which side you are attempting to support here. Are you isolationist, but “shining city on a hill”? Everyone should love us, but no one can come here? WTF does cell phone use have to do with this? And do you have even a basic understanding of how currency works?
Word. Salad.
You agreed with someone? And for the love of all that’s holy, read your posts for clarity BEFORE you post.
Oh, it should make sense. It just doesn’t. Are you arguing that the US should de-value it’s own currency because then we’ll be less awesome? Or something? Fuck that noise.
Looking at the Join Dates, that time is taking longer than we thought.
You’re just salivating at the thought of people losing their jobs, their homes, their savings accounts, and can’t wait till there are people starving. Right?
USA is actually naked with its rapidly growing public debt , far greater unofficial unemployment and very large trade deficit.
2 things are helping it from getting exposed - petrodollar (reserve currency status), and it’s charm (mentioned in post#232).
Once it does get exposed, the world will be far more equal and countries/people will be able to prioritize far better I promise.
Cheap smartphone and broadband represent empowerment of every individual. People(including myself) may have earlier thought the USA rightly enjoys a premium coz it’s the innovation capital of the world. Not anymore, since individuals of poorer nations have been empowered as much as any US citizen capable of inventing such wonderful innovations.
It may need a deeper thought. I think people should take some time thinking over this post.
