https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ub-aTLD6JVw 0 EXCELLENT COVERAGE OF THE U.S. BANKING DILEMMA. THE KEY FACTOR, however, in all this is THE VALUE OF THE U.S. DOLLAR. As long as it's STRONG, the USA can weather "THE FINANCIAL STORM" by hook + by crook pulling rabbits out of its hat. HOWEVER, THE DOWNWARD TREND of the U.S. is THE LYNCHPIN in this whole catastrophic affair. IN ADDITION, there are TWO (2) AGGRAVATING FACTORS. There's the Federal Reserve selling T-bills SO THE GOV'T HAS MONEY to spend: THIS IS A PONZI SCHEME (commonly known as "printing money") that works as long as THE DEMAND for U.S. T-bills is there. IT ISN'T! That's THE BIG PROBLEM. The "other" aggravating factor is THE ABUSE OF THE PUBLIC TRUST by lying about THE JOB NUMBERS; then, using THE JOB NUMBERS as "proof" that the economy is overheating forcing interest rates up in order to cool it down when in fact interests are going up to KEEP THE U.S. DOLLAR HIGH. HOW LONG can this go on? It caN'T. THE OVERALL PROBLEM IS THE USA HAS "decoupled" from the rest of the world (Trump - especially - deserves the credit for this as well as the U.S. Gov't "protectionist" BUY USA policy imposed on all U.S. businesses)+ the rest of the world is "decoupling" via BRICS including THE WHOLE MUSLIM WORLD. There's A NEW LATINO ORGANIZATION replacing the OAS (Organization of American States) in which the USA is intentionally NOT included thanks to Mexico: The Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CLACS) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS https://www.globalresearch.ca/clacs-significant-step-toward-inevitable-replacement-oas/5756912 AND, now, Africa does NOT want anything to do with the USA siding with China + Russia BECAUSE it's in THEIR NATIONAL LONG-TERM INTEREST TO DO SO. AND, it's NOT ONLY THE USA that will be GOING DOWN THE TUBE, but all NATO countries WITH THE EXCEPTION of Canada thanks to INCREDIBLY STONG SOLID CHINESE INVESTMENT that has been put in place for decades, but it INCREASING AT A VERY RAPID RATE. (The City of Toronto has 250+ TOWER CONSTRUCTION CRANES, now + years to come while in the USA you'd be lucky to count more than 49 in the whole country some of which may be FOR COSTMETIC PURPOSES.) (Ha! Ha!) THE LESSON LEARNED HERE: if you're GOING TO BE A FRIEND OF CHINA, you're GOING TO BE RICH. :D THINGS WILL BE ALRIGHT. (HA! HA!) Incidentally, the U.S. TOP GENERAL promises the USA will be AT WAR WITH CHINA in 2025: HOW CRAZY is that, eh? Ken, Toronto, CANADA
