Why the Dollar Still Rules the World – And Why the Renminbi Isn’t Ready to Take Over

I’m reluctant to post a video as the average Freeper will respond with an angry, “I don’t watch videos!!!” Sometimes with an excess amount of exclamation points. More than three indicates you’re on the verge of smashing your head into the keyboard until it bleeds.

This video is the most in-depth explanation of the world economic system, dollar hegemony and why we can’t reduce the deficit and why that won’t hurt the value of the dollar. It discusses the impact of American debt on the hollowing of industrial capacity and the impact on wages and lifestyle. We really can’t discuss these things without a common understanding of how the system works and how dangerous it would be to tamper with it. Without understanding of the whole global system having an opinion on this or that aspect is like an ant describing an elephant’s toe.
