Our own fault... the US$ has been the primary currency of exchange because it has been stable (WRT other currencies) and we had an intelligent monetary policy.

Now it's bread & circuses time...

Confidence in the $ is degrading as we continue to print more money to pay for the social programs that keep the congressional clown show going...

Basic economics, scarcity of a commodity drives it's perceived and real value up. Glut of a commodity drives it's value down. We have not only created a glut of $... but we are borrowing to keep the clown show going.

Government bonds pay off in $ that are increasingly worth less... soon they'll be worthless and you won't be able to GIVE government bonds away.

So, it makes sense that the unstable, worthless $ should be abandoned as the medium of exchange. Certainly NOT the Yuan.

Might i suggest BITCOIN? A relatively stable currency controlled by the market, not a government.

I'm aware of BITCOIN I'm a member of a forum that discusses and advises on investing in it. I have yet to make a decision, I'd like to research more. Regarding China, do you believe the U.S. will threaten them with war or sanctions? If you recall Obama ordered that assassination of Qaddafi after he had threatened the Dollar .
