The Saint Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) is taking place in Russia today, running through June 21. At this event, the official, actual, real, BRICS Banknote was unveiled.  It represents DOOM for the "mighty" US Dollar.

Several years ago, Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS), formed the BRICS,  with the specific purpose of creating an alternate method of conducting International trade WITHOUT using the United States Dollar as a means of settlement.

The Dollar, presently the defacto "Reserve" currency of planet earth, has been the method for settling international trade for almost 100 years.   The dollar's reliability, value, exchangeability, made it the perfect stable financial mechanism where everyone in the world could trade, and settle in Dollars, knowing they were getting a solid, reliable method of payment.   

Of late - perhaps the past fifteen, 20 years -- the dollar has become quite undesirable.

You see the United States has been over-spending at the national government level, and has now racked-up about $37.5 TRILLION in debt.   Interest payments alone on that debt, now slightly exceed $1 TRILLION a year. 

As this staggering debt grew, countries around the world starting asking themselves, "What is backing this currency that we can rely upon?"  The answer?  Nothing.   

Sure, the US Constitution refers to the "full faith and credit of the United States," which has - in the past - always been reliable.   But with the US Government racking-up debt so fast, faith in the dollar is waning.

Worse, the US Government started using the Dollar as a weapon.  The US told countries around the world "You can do this, you can't do that" or else you cannot use OUR Dollar to settle YOUR trade.   Countries didn't like that very much.

Then the US starting pushing societal garbage like LGBTQ+ and "Trans-Gender" insanity . . . . and began telling other countries THEY had to adopt such things as well, or , they couldn't use OUR dollar for THEIR trade.

Well, everyone around the world knows, and has known for centuries, that LGBTQ exists, and in most places, it does so privately; not out in public, where it is still referred to in many places as a "crime against nature."

But the US was not satisfied with that, they want it out in the open; they want it accepted as "normal."  It is not.

Many, MANY, countries around the world vomit at this personal behavior, and they darn sure aren't going to celebrate it or promote it in public.   The US doesn't care - the US insists countries do what the US says.

Then, in trade, the US is now in the routine habit of "imposing economic sanctions" on countries, telling Americans we cannot do any business with, or trade with, such sanctioned countries.   But the US didn't stop with just interfering with what American citizens can do, the US started telling OTHER COUNTRIES, that if THEY trade with a sanctioned country, then THEY cannot trade with the US or use the Dollar for trade settlements!

At this point, the world starting getting fed-up with being told how to live, what to teach their societies, and who they could - or could not - do business with.   But there was a major problem: All oil sales in the world HAD to be settled in U.S. Dollars.  Thanks to an agreement between the US and oil producing nations back in the 1970's ALL OIL TRANSACTION has to be paid for in US Dollars.

In return for agreeing to do this, the US promised those oil producing nations that it would use US military night to protect those nations.  Hence, all oil sales, worldwide, had to be paid for in US Dollars, which were euphemistically called "Petro-Dollars."

In order to engage in oil purchases and sales, the Central Banks of almost every country on earth, had to store US dollars in their banks, to make certain they could buy and sell outside their countries.

TRILLIONS of Dollars ended-up being held in various central banks around the world, so trade could go on, unimpeded.

But when the US started telling countries what they must teach their kids (LGBTQ+) , who they could buy from / sell to, or face overnight economic ruin if placed under sanctions, it was all too much.

BRICS was formed and immediately began to develop a way to create a currency, based upon COMMODITIES which would back the currency.  No more "full faith and credit"; there had to be hard assets so the currency would have guaranteed worth.

Developing hard asset values for each country, was a major undertaking.  It took a couple years.

SWIFT

Another issue was the system for International Settlement, currently called SWIFT.

The SWIFT system, formally known as the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication, is a secure, global messaging network that enables financial institutions worldwide to send and receive information, primarily payment instructions, about international transactions. It doesn't handle the funds itself, but rather facilitates the secure communication needed for cross-border payments. 

This system is absolutely controlled by the United States, which then has complete access to who is buying what, from whom.  No privacy.  No national security for foreign countries.  All their international transactions can be looked-at by the USA.   Countries didn't like this, either.

This is what spawned the creation of BRICS, and the commencing of a payment system completely disconnected from the US Dollar.

Today, at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) they unveiled the product from all that work: The BRICS Bank Note.

Earlier this year, they unveiled the new International Bank Messaging System, that BRICS nations can use to wire payment info - totally outside the prying eyes of the US. So now, countries don't have to use the US Dollar anymore.  They can buy and sell all over the world, and the US can't do a thing about it - except maybe halting any trade with BRICS nations.

Halting trade would be an enormous thing.  Right now, the United States is the largest consumer market on earth: About $30 TRILLION in buying/selling every year.   Countries all over the world trade with us, and doing business with us makes their profits and dreams possible.   If that gets cut-off, they will take a gigantic economic hit.

So changing over to this new BRICS system, will be a slow, cautious, quiet process.  The US won't actually know who has done it, but the US can guess - and cut those countries off, sending some of them, perhaps, into economic ruin.

But the world is moving away from the dollar, and doing so as an ever-increasing pace.  The world is tired of being pushed around by the US Government and with today's introduction of the BRICS Bank Note, economic doom is now firmly on the horizon for the United States Dollar.

Our federal government did this to us.  THEY are solely, and exclusively, to blame.

This, more than anything else, is why President Trump is urgently seeking to bring manufacturing back to the USA.   We don't manufacture much here, anymore.  And if BRICS suddenly comes online and no one in the world wants to trade with us anymore, our entire country would collapse in on itself, unable to buy or sell to the world because the world is fed-up with us.

It is now a race to see what happens first.  Will the US get re-industrialized BEFORE BRICS erases us from the global marketplace, or will BRICS become the go-to before we re-industrialize, thereby sending the US onto the ash heap of history?

It takes years to build factories, infrastructure and such.  But BRICS is moving much faster than we are re-industrializing.   So the US has a major dilemma: How to slow down BRICS?

Gee, that's easy, a World War!   Start a world war, and everything gets fouled up.  Just the ticket the US (and Europe) need to try to stay on top.

Hence, all the trouble in the world now.

It all has to do with money, trade, and who controls it all.  The US has control and wants to keep it.  The rest of the world wants to break free.  The US can't let that happen.

Ergo, World War is on the menu.  It is the ONLY thing that will prevent the BRICS countries from succeeding; and the US would rather burn the entire world down, to rule over the ashes, than to lose control.
