In the new world, it will all come down to the resources that the people of each country possess. Globalism is about to fall, and there will be isolations, like it or not. Big socialist governments cannot continue without large manufacturing bases or valuable currencies. The dollar will fall internationally, too. And BTW, don’t believe the propaganda about east Asia completely collapsing. Again, resources, including commodities (oil, metals, trees, etc.), housing, all.
Currencies are only for trading useful things (real wealth) during harmonious times—times that will continue only for countries that are net commodities exporters (oil). Currencies and financial instruments are really nothing, when economies fall apart from the corruption. Think about it, and become more self-sufficient.
Our annual trade deficit with commie China is 272 BILLION DOLLARS.
If we kept that amount of money in the United States, it would pay for 1,000 F-22 fighters every year.
Every year.
