The ultimate objective of the US since removal of the gold standard in 1971 was to indebt the whole world into lending it money to finance its own evolution ... exchanging their reseves for US dunny paper ... then later devaluing the debt by devaluing the dollar. This was already on course until the greed stepped in and raised the ante to rock the boat ..... so now thay have to expand the con for a while longer (USDX 100?) cos every bit of OP's cash they import, less the FED has to print. But the numbers are becoming so BIG by the day and will hence lead to even greater USD devaluations ..... monetary hyperinflation is already here but we cant see it clearly yet cos they dont have to tell us anymore. The prob is EVERYONE will want / need to join in the devaluations or else lose their competitive export edge. Simple drivers for POG heading for the stars soon once it breaks outa 930+ Biggest problem for us minnows in Oz tho is our national debt is mostly USD and we cant use THEIR printing presses to get out of jail free .... hence irrespective of above, AUD is relatively doomed until everyone wants our resources again. This will do wonders for Ozzie gold price and hence goldcos ........ USDPOG 1200 + AUDUSD 0.5 = AUDPOG 2400. Thats coming soon enough methinks. IMBOOC
