The US does not have an "economy." The US has a bloated, criminal kleptocracy run by financial looters whose wealth has been based for decades on creating fake money out of thin air and charging desperate people usurious rates of interest to meet their basic survival needs.
I stand corrected. However, you remember the looting of the Gold reserves to prop up the banks during the Carter?/Obama years - that gold is spent and the banks don't have any more reserves and it is hopefully only a short term, before they are forced to start closing, taking with them the wealth of their rich customers, whose assets have been absorbed by the banks, trying to stay afloat from bad investments, they can never recover their money from.
Your Australia is OK - they keep sending billions of Dollars to the Ukraine for Zelenski to spend buying property, or top of the line Bugatti cars for his wife and don't Aussie investments have some sort of $250,000 Government Guarantee, if any go bust?
Australia is now a target for a Russian ballistic nuclear weapon or two presumably - I doubt Russia would waste one on a city, but one with a good naval or airforce base nearby seems like a great idea - as a kid, my father was on RAF bases and the sirens used to go off every few weeks warning of an impending nuclear attack from Russia, they were just trial runs, but I used to go outside to see if I could see the incoming rocket which would blow me to smithreens - which never happened, obviously - but now you can have the thrill of that Richard, it seems, instead.
For anyone reading this - a nuclear warning or explosion. Lay face down in a clear space, with your feet towards where the explosion took place and cover your head with your arms. The explosion will flow over you and won't harm you - the radiation, no idea, however survive one, before you worry about the second. This is what those Japanese who survived the nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki did and they survived, the upright ones all died.
Don't get me wrong. I love your stuff. Just trying to be funny. Did I read in your material that BlackRock is literally hauling away Ukrainian topsoil as it forecloses on that country's unpayable debt? Also can read on multiple sources that it's drug money that has replaced both gold and oil.
Don't get me wrong, I just love my interaction with you. I try to be funny each time I try and "pull your leg" sometimes I get away with it, sometimes I don't (shrug). Last I heard, the reason why America is in the war with Ukraine against Russia is for the 12 to 13 Trillion Dollars of natural assets Ukraine has, that America wants for itself. When did America ever get involved in other people's wars, unless there was something in it for America - see Aussie is investing in the Ukraine war too, fancy that - same incentives? Share some of the American/Ukraine pie at the feeding trough? Not heard the drug money one - but if the police and police bodies confiscate money and drugs at the same time, then your comment is more than plausible. Heard Escobar had rooms packed full of money he could not convert into some other form, was an effort to find some of it after he died, so far, no luck.
We need to correct a basic misunderstanding here.

Let's just get our terminology straight please.
