SkisNH Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Russia has been stock piling gold (so has China)...I see this as a move to support their currency as the dollar falls out of favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dollar is by far the desired current in the world. As for gold, neither of their currency is pegged to gold. The US has more than 4 times their gold. In a 24 hour period the US could collapse the price of gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we are beyond broke fighting wars for theft. Gold is being manipulated to hurt the guys the bankers don't like who have a bunch of gold. Also a flawed plan.

History doesn't indicate that. The Chinese have a penchant of self destruction. There's nothing in today's China that says otherwise. Their ruling class becomes so murderous and incompetent that it's unable to rule. The myth that China has a "long game" is a preposterous idea made up by some stupid Americans that are too lazy to read and examine China's patterns of governing.

spin_dry Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Paul Wells wrote an excellent Op Ed on China last year. He accurately depicts the repeating cycle of Chinese disfunction. At this point China is entering into stage 4 and 5. . Internal government upheaval – Some faction takes charge of a fractured, and invariably extremely corrupt government. This process is usually almost invisible externally. An “emperor” is made – China’s most conspicuous leaders are de facto emperors, competent or otherwise. They have extraordinary power, far beyond their predecessors in their own governments. The imperial mode seems to be the default. Opposition is destroyed – However innocuous, all visible dissent ceases. Any reason is invented to remove opponents and critics. Economic problems become severe – Wealth and power have an unambiguous history in China’s destructive eras. Wealth corrupts; China suffers. External factors come into play – China has a unique history of bizarre relations with the rest of the world. Whether it’s the Mongols, Soviets, colonial powers or the Americans, this highly reactive and often extremely clumsy relationship drives all future moves.
