“The U.S. dollar’s surge against the world’s major currencies is making waves for Southern California’s international trade community.

As a result of the dollar’s precipitous rise in recent months, the volume of exports moving through the area has taken a steep drop.

Conversely, the volume of goods imported from overseas is growing as a result of the dollar’s increased buying power abroad.

At the Port of Long Beach, for example, exports in the fourth quarter of 1996 were up a scant 0.4 percent over the like period a year earlier, while imports surged 17.4 …”

It was used as money principly because it was NOT a readily available commodity and more importantly because it could NOT be created out of thin air at anyones whim. As such it provided stability to the economy.The only possible conclusion to a system with no standard and with the ability to create money out of thin air is collapse.

Yes, we need transparency, disclosure and accountability.
Do you really think we will get it?

This administration is fabricating anything and everything they can to hide the truth, tear down and rebuild and they are using our tax dollars to do it!

They are inciting hate and racial distension against the American people.

“PRESIDENT OBAMA: We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America. ”

Obama’s czars, in particular, Van Jones is just one behind this takeover.

Radicals have been playing the race card for decades and it was a lie then, it’s a lie now!

“VAN JONES: This movement is deeper than a solar panel. Deeper than a solar panel. Don’t stop there. Don’t stop there. No, we’re going to change the whole system. We’re going to change the whole thing. We’re not going to put a new battery in a broken system. We want a new system. We want a new system. ”

They want a “new system” and they are implementing that new system, as I speak.

“VAN JONES: And our Native American sisters and brothers who were pushed and bullied and mistreated and shoved into all the land we didn’t want, where it was all hot and windy, well, guess what, renewable energy. Guess what, solar industry. Guess what, wind industry. They now own and control 80% of the renewable energy resources. No more broken treaties. No more broken treaties. Give them the wealth. Give them the wealth. Give them the dignity. Give them the respect that they deserve. No justice on stolen land. We owe them a debt.
”

“VAN JONES: The white polluters and the white environmentals are essentially steering poison into the people of colored communities.

It seems to me that under the constitution, we should be able to take these people down and throw them out of the white house!

Where’s the FBI or CIA in this? Who is doing anything to stop this communist take over?!

What does the constitution say about marxist/communist over throwing our country?

What are our rights as a people and who the hell is doing anything about it?!

We are a nation in distress!

Does anyone realize how very close we are to being completely restructured as a nation?

Do you wonder where the damn money is for “bailouts?” We are being distracted with this health care bill and other issues while they are busy implementing their new socialistic agenda with the aid of their self professed czars!

They are using the money to rebuild the government to a socialistic/marxist/communist nation!

Right under our noses and we are being distracted with other crap while they are doing this!

We need to get them out of our government, media and take down the strongholds unions, etc. that have orchestrated this takeover.

This is bigger than anyone could have ever imagined.

They have been implementing this stuff before he got elected because they knew “the one” was going to be elected! It was guaranteed.
