Well, I think we might actually be on the same page with that.

Federal Reserve?
I'm right there with you.

Petrodollar and why we have assets in the middle east?
They're tied together, and I think you need to do a little more research on the subject.
You have to have something wrong with you to wnt the petrodollar to fail and have the yuan become the world's Reserve currency.

The entire system is one of theft. That's why we have to use the military to enforce it and attack countries like Iran when they threaten it.

What really defines our economy is not the currency. It's that we have resources, we have people to work and use those resources to make products, and we have people who want to buy those products.

Exporting inflation is just theft from more than our own citizens. But it's not like the American citizens benefit from that.

Maybe once upon a time, but we're not.in the position for that anymore. Unless you're advocating for a complete and total collapse of the country and to (hopefully) rebuild it over the next decade or so.

What happened to England after the pound lost its status as the world's reserve currency? And they were in nowhere the debt or position we're in now.

The national debt is fake.

There is no basis to claim the country will collapse.

If it weren't for the mullahs and the IRGC maybe it would stabilize over there and we could exit that region.
Because the middle east was a notoriously stable part of the world prior to 1979, right?

And until oil and LNG are replaced in the global economy, we should have a presence in that resource rich environment. But that also doesn't mean we have to get involved in every pissing contest in that region.

I wouldn’t exactly call this whole thing “a pissing match”. Y’all do know it’s possible to disagree with the thing without having to minimize it or other things associated with it.

So you’re okay with your president just blatantly lying to you? I don’t know why people like you are just okay with it and get upset when anyone calls it out. I’ll vote for him any day of the week over most of the democrats, but I can’t criticize him as much as I want to.

Do you think it’s not okay to criticize him over this war? If so, why?

Not even close. Completely different president. He’s controlled now. You can tell by the animosity level being completely toned down by the media and his fellow politicians.

I mean it's kind of true. Do you want them to quit saying it because it hurts your feelings or something?
