This is the fastest pace in the debt accumulation in USA history. In four months and 17 days, the debt added another 1 trillion dollars. if the debt increase in the same rate of the past four months, the USA debt will be surpass the its GDP at June 2010. after that the sky is the limit! God help us all! Johnny I think Jim is right on the debt in United States. according the treasury direct website, United states debt currently hit 11 trillion today.

Had you taken his advice then, you presently would be missing more than half of your investment.

Something I found out quite recently which would indicate that China has begun to meddle big-time in the currency markets. Read this article of mine called "China's Torpedo Play: Yuan Set to Replace Dollar in Asia" here: http://slowsmile.hypocrisy.com/2009/02/10/chinas-torpedo-play-yuan-set-to-replace-dollar-in-asia/ On reflection and also concerning this article, it is probably unlikely that South Korea, Japan or Vietnam, will immediately join this new reserve currency, because of debts and covenant ties to the WTO, IMF and World Bank. But, as I see it, there is no earthly reason to suppose that the likes of Russia, Thailand, India, Cambodia, Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore will not join. I believe these Asian countries will clamour for it since, if and when China opens up its currency, it will undoubtedly be the strongest currency in the world. I have also discovered that China has been buying up gold, which would also fit in nicely with China's currency play. Russia, strangely, will also be part of this new Asian Reserve currency. Before the last G20 summit, China went into secret talks with Russia which is quite disturbing. Economically, Russia is the perfect fit for China. On the one hand we have Russia with all the raw materials, energy and oil anyone could want and on the other hand we have China, with a cheap and vast workforce as well as huge manufacturing capability. Although these two countries aren't so apparently aligned now politically or economically, things could certainly change after the G20 Sumit in London this April. Please use this info however you like. I am only a small-time scrawler who enjoys writing about economics and geopolitics. But this info needs to be disseminated properly I think since this info seems to be well suppressed in the West - I left a reasonable comment like this on The Times UK website(twice) - and they wouldn't print it. Very odd that. Hi….Thought this would interest you. Something I found out quite recently which would indicate that China has begun to meddle big-time in the currency markets.
