As this movement gains momentum, America can save itself only by moving toward gold, too. I'd bet you a few Bitcoins that we won't.

Probably don't have any.

The world will use whatever currency it feels safest with as a reserve currency. China can have very little impact on this.

the problem with this is that the US oil production is going straight up.

If not for the fed doing their QE’s .... the dollar would go straight up too.

as it is the downward pressure of the QE’s is matched by the upward pressure of rising oil pressure so the dollar has been going roughly sideways for five years.

China is now overtly pushing for the US dollar to be replaced as the world’s reserve currency.

It's only a matter of time, now.

The industrialized nations/regions of the world (the US,Europe,Japan,etc) made a huge mistake in the 80's when they decided to allow Chinese made goods into their countries.During my first trip to China in 1980,the areas I saw looked like they were straight out of the Middle Ages.During my most recent visit (2010) that same area was clogged with traffic and the major city (Guangzhou) had numerous glass and steel skyscrapers.

And we allowed all that to happen.Without access to our markets they'd still be riding bikes and living in stone huts as they were in '80.

The dollar is backed by oil. Eventually, maybe Russia or Iran, will fix their oil to gold.

As of January 2013 The Federal Reserve had deposits of 8.133 thousand tons of physical gold. This is about the equivalent of Germany Italy and France, the next three largest holders of gold, put together. China had about 1000 tons.
