Biden he is absolutely creating chaos in the US and in every corner of the globe.

Biden isn't creating or doing anything. He's just an empty husk who reads a teleprompter at press conferences.

And he can't even do that right. He's always going off script, babbling semi-coherent nonsense.

“If enough countries decide the US dollar isn’t the reserve currency, we are really screwed.” Why is that?
I’m certainly not going to defend the shitty government we have but we are the most reliable people. Especially in a world where all the money’s value is based on faith and trust, as opposed to coercion and deception.
Do you trust a Chinese, Russian, European, or Indian central bank that is government controlled?
I’ll stick with the dangers of a freer market run by greedy old bankers, that don’t have armies to protect them personally.

“ Are you calling Sharia Law as the superior to the western lifestyle?”

No. But the ways things are going, once freedom is no more, the Muzzies and Commies will have to fight it out. I might just get to see this. Hope I don’t.

To be clear on what the two of you are saying: you would rather be living under Sharia Law than the current system in America?

“That would signal the beginning of the end of the petro dollar. That would be very bad news.”

The Petrodollar already died. In 1970 oil was 15% of the global economy. Now it is only 3%.

What oil gets priced in really doesn’t matter any more.

I assume you’d twist anything I’d write into whatever you want to imply about me. You aren’t discussing the issue, you are berating me. I choose people for conversation who are intellectual honest.

That’s supposed to be some sort of test? LMAO

It has always been that way.

As for governments, we have more progress toward peace than
we did under Obama.

You made your short pro-Sharia, pro-Islam statements and so far that is all, except for a bunch of insults and attacks.

Oh lookie! You want to have an actual conversation!

Of course, our system is what anyone should prefer. If the cultural decay continues, however, then a Muslim country might become preferable. That would sucks for women, to be sure.

Many do not stop to think how we look to news readers around the world. I imagine our culture seems pretty pathetic and obscene. I regard quite a lot of it as obscene and deeply corrupted myself. It is important to remember that life in a Muslim country is mostly like life in Old Testament Israel. Of course, Islam includes many nasty twists that are not OT.

Our culture needs to restored. I don't think anyone is actually up for the task.

Exaggerate much? It amazes me how disingenuous many posters here on FR have become. They are comfortable with reading minds and prescribing characteristics to others they don’t even know. Same tactic of the leftist extremists known as Democrats.

Your point is well taken and well directed.

It’s very fair. America is despised in most Arab countries. It’s common that people pretend to be Canadian, Brit, Russian, or whatever they can pass for when traveling there.

“I would perfer to live where I am safe, period.”

One of the core tenets of Sharia is ‘better 30 years of tyranny than one day of anarchy

America of course was founded on Franklin’s notion:

“Those who would give up Liberty, to purchase a little Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

It does sound like Sharia may be more to your liking than the American constitution.

“It’s very fair. America is despised in most Arab countries.”

That’s interesting, since a lot of Americans live and work in KSA, Kuwait, UAE, Qatar, and Jordan; without any problem. And all of them are Arab countries.

No, military history and long-range strategic thinking and anticipating the Red China threat.

OK, where would you prefer to take a stroll at night: South side of Chicago or Baghdad? (Assuming we can hide the American visage.)
