Nothing personal. Just preparing for the post-USA world.

“China is leading the way in a growing anti-Western economic alliance known as BRICS, a Wall Street term that has morphed into a diplomatic and trading power bloc that threatens U.S. interests abroad.”

SANCTIONS, man, SANCTIONS, yea, that will solve all our problems. I once read that there’s a whole branch of our State Department that does nothing but sanction countries.

But being a motormount my self, I’ve learned that when you overuse a tool, it will wear out. Now the number of people in the State Department who are motormounts can probably be counted on one hand, since that work is looked down upon in the gay community, so they have to learn this lesson the hard way.

So what’s happening now is that the BRICS are VERY QUICKLY turning into a trading block that will bypass the West when they move goods and money. They already have a huge chunk of the world, and as we just saw, it’s quickly growing...so our great president has pretty much over-used his ‘sanction tool’.

They are a threat to our national security! We must take on all of them and be as hostile as we can. Maybe invade a few to make an example! Heil neocons!

BRICS and the Belt and Road are both Lyndon LaRouche projects dating from the mid 89’s. You can research it on his several websites. It was designed to destroy the World Bank, IMF choke hold on 3ed World debt. Read “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.

DC is willing to try anything in this world except being hostile and using subterfuge and power plays. Try are oblivious to the hate for America they are creating.

Any human who can rub two brain cells together should be able to see this!

The days of Pax America are about over and we should act like it.

We've dictated to the world how they should run their lives for many decades, and the world finally sees how that gig works -- and they don't like it. Look at the devastation and loss of human lives we've caused all around the planet; Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Ukraine, and others. It rivals Mao and Stalin.

The rest of the world is changing contrary to our preaching and so-called "rule-based orders." You know, it's like your kids grow up. You may (or may not) have influence when that happens, but if you do, you've earned it -- not bought it or gained it through dictatorial/threatening strength.

By the way, we citizens are in the same crosshairs as the other nations. That is, we are ordered around and "dictated" to by the political elite class. As citizens, we're no different in their eyes. Only we don't seem to have the power to fight back.

Any thinking human would hope our political class learns a big lesson from this (but highly doubtful). Because in the end, it just might help us too.

The best way to defeat the BRICS currency plan is for the US Congress to balance the budget, no more debt ceiling increases, and be fiscally responsible. The world really isn’t looking to replace the Dollar as the reserve currency. It’s only looking to alternatives, like some future BRICS currency pegged to GOLD, because the US Congress has been so reckless.

Congressional pols judge doing the 'right thing' too painful for the public & editorial writers and thus disastrous to their re-election prospects.

Printing & deficit spending will continue.
