Many do Not know that these countries are buying Many Tons of Gold, and also talking about Changing the World Currency to Something besides the Dollar.

All those countries you just showed do not even total the amount of our debt our Federal reserve owns. And really, once you think about it, since we are the world reserve currency, they’re actually buying our debt with our credit. Next time, how about you all inform instead of using the fearmongering bullshit?

Also, how is it a national security risk for them to “own” our debt? I’d say the risk is much more on their side, as the owners, if we default, oh well, we already spent it.

@rangeclerk They still have the communist flag grand. Georgia’s State Flag was the confederate one until last decade but Georgia didn’t practice slavery. And China’s only party is the communist party, yep. You do know there is only one party in countries such as Syria, Eritrea, and Turkmenistan? And the communist party of China is the same: in name only. I find it funny you have failed to notice the great flourishing of private enterprise within China that is certainly distinctly uncommunist.

@ObssesedNuker Commuist China still has the communist flag and is the only party allowed. The communists will use whatever is at hand to continue pushing their totalitarian system and are arming themselves to attack Taiwan eventually. The only good communist just like any good nazi was and is a dead one

@rangeclerk Which would have been entirely unnecessary as the Soviet Union was doomed to collapse anyways and China was going to go capitalist following Mao’s death. What an unnecessary waste of the lives of hundreds of millions of people that would have been.

Late 1980s was a PBS 13 part-series called WAR & PEACE IN THE NUCLEAR AGE & and text by the same name. The Head of Soviet Strag, Forces stated in the series & quoted in the text, during the 50s the Russians did not have the ability to deliever any atomic/nuclear warheads on the Cont. United States–to Europe they could but NOT THE US—We could have taken out all of those commie bastards, Russia & China!

@ObssesedNuker WE would loose our ability to launch Americans into space as well as no means of getting to the space station–of course given the Bush and Obama cancelling our means of getting into space (Space Shuttles) America will no longer be able to get into space or the moon but other nations such as RED CHINA—therefore we to plan a full scale nuclear strike on Red China and any other nations that are a threat to US

@youngdones No. Civilization would collapse, billions would die over the next few years, and we would be plunged into a new dark age, but humanity (as a collective species) is too resourceful for something like tens of thousands of nuclear warheads too kill us.
Now a asteroid impact, on the other hand…
