As at 1 Jan 24 the original 5 country BRICS alliance had doubled to 10 countries.. those 10 include 5 of the biggest oil producers in the world.. meaning 5 of the top 10 largest oil producing nations.. and some of the richest nations on the planet.. so not 'poor' by any stretch of the imagination.. and with the exception of the efforts to sanction Rus.sia.. they are not sanctioned either.. and with another 10 Asean countries set to join BRICS (including Thailand) this demonstrates the desire for the rest of the world to move away from the USD.. of course they will still want to trade with the US.. but it will be on their terms going forward.. so the US must step into line!

@Christopher *******

You've completely lost me.. if China is a BRICS nation and the US has ditched the fiat dollar and become part of the BRICS financial system.. why is there a problem trading with China.. the Yuan will replace the USD as the world's reserve country during this process.. the propensity for international trade will be unaffected.. but this is dependent upon the rainbow dollar being asset backed.. it will be because that decision has already been made.

@Christopher *******

You are missing the point.. the fiat dollar is dead and buried.. it has to be replaced with a new asset backed dollar.. that move is akin to joining the BRICS nations in economic terms.. and ensures continuity of trade.. the US will probably be one of the last countries to convert.. because the pResident has to be removed before that can happen.. fyi it will be known as the rainbow dollar moving forward.

@Per ********

Totally agree.. at last 😁

I find it incredible that people rush to make judgements about the intelligence of others without having the slightest idea about them or their education.. their egos tell them 'they' are far more intelligent and far more knowledgeable.. so they dismiss opposing opinions as being baseless.. rather than considering the fact that they are the ones who might be uneducated and uninformed.. people can believe what they want but shouldn't castigate others for sharing a different point of view when there is no evidence to prove their own theory.. this mostly results from 'cognitive dissonance' and sadly swathes of humanity have been conditioned that way since birth!

@Per ********

CBDC's are an effort to control us.. alongside a social credit score system et al.. they will not succeed as a CB invention!

@Per ********

Nope.. all hyperbole!

@Per ********

I never suggested there would be a 'BRICS' currency.. or a one-world currency of any description for that matter.. countries that are declaring an intention to join BRICS are simply moving to an asset backed currency.. which is a requirement for them to participate in the new world financial system.. and it is imperative for nations to retain their own (completely independent) currency units in order to maintain sovereignty.. hence the Euro cannot survive since the EU is not a sovereign state.. but a federation designed with the sole intention of removing a member nation's sovereignty.. so all EU countries will have to revert to their native unit of currency.. and after collectively wiping out all national debt across the world.. and equalising exchange rates.. every country will have a clean slate to begin building a better future for it's people.. no more creating money out of thin air and lending it to govt's.. which has been the means by which CB's have exerted political control over nations in the past.. CB's are unnecessary since they only serve their paymasters.. the functions that may still be required can be absorbed by the Treasury division of a sitting govt.. but will be run by true representatives of the people.. not business men looking to grift an unsuspecting public.. the whole concept of banking has to change since it's been a den of inequity since inception.. and that change is coming fast.. people need to go to Rumble or Bitchute and search terms such as qfs and nesara/gesara to get informed!

The currency was originally created to hide the spoils of illegal activities.. has been mined by the same criminals ever since.. and has been artificially supported by them to look attractive.. it will soon bomb again.. but next time the freefall will have no bottom!
