The Dollar

The Dollar:


To save the dollar, the regime would need to wish for America's recovery. But what if it does not? I don't mean just the regime of Obama's elites. I mean also the regime of the mega elites who run Obama's elites. Is it ever safe to increase the power of the present regime? Your plan would help, were our leaders actually Americans -- in body and mind. But the writing has been on the wall for a long time that the American idea has been abandoned by the kind of leaders we persist in electing, progressively. Our checks and balances are about to fall. We need a movement to reverse a long term, evil trend, but I despair whether that can be done peaceably. Still, we must try. We desperately need a re-awakening.

The dollar has become just a symbol for the value we place in being governed by an elite that controls all our chokepoints, including: the printing of money, the setting of interest rates, the extent of governmental indebtedness, the budget for legislative enactments, the projection of apologists for elitist rule, the scientists who are dependent on government grants, the politicians who are dependent on corporate contributions, the corporations that are dependent on government kickbacks, the media for mesmerizing public acquiescence, and the academe for inculcating faith and trust in the regime of elitists. Elitists print the dollar, create its value, and spread its influence. Eventually, the dollar, or something very like it, may become a computer-stored measure of the fluxing value that is impersonally placed on each and every non-elite person.

So, insofar as society everywhere is becoming more and more collectivized, with elites to rule the collective, must not whatever replaces the dollar be something very much like the dollar? Will the dollar come to differ only in the nature of the international, elitist regime that sponsors something much like it? Will that regime become a dominating alliance of nations, or a dominating alliance of elitist corporatists? Or an impersonal power monger, like Big Brother? Will elitists gamble with chips for face time with an impersonal power structure, while proles trade in globe-dollars?

From A.T. -- @Ruler4you asked, " Can we survive as a nation is the question?" Bingo! Alternatively stated: Must every nation that values individual freedom and dignity perish?

From A.T. -- @Dougral said, "I hate to say it but America's last chance to be a financially viable nation may not outlast this president." Well, that is the plan of the mega elites who front the elites who rationalize all that is fit for the consumption of the proles. But not even the mega elites will retain much freedom or dignity. They themselves will be reduced to the impersonal power structure of an uncaring, pain inflicting, system of Big Brother, i.e., Progressives' proxy for God. I think the issue to be decided is this: Is impersonal power in its own sake on a par with empathy, or is empathy superior? This will not be decided by logic or science. It will be decided by faith and commitment.
