I ran across an article today by Michael T. Winter that summed up the entire problem with the modern world, and it did so very succinctly.
All of the individual parts of this concept have been discussed here on this board before, time and time again. But the overall concept of the 'Merika whose entire policy is dictated by the protection of the Petrodollar is very well laid out in this article. If you are someone who has seen it all before, skip down to the halfway point of this post... But the rest of you need to know all of the following shit. It's too important.
First, here's the article... You'd better sit down for this:
Petrodollar pumping US policy on Iran, backfire looms — RT
It goes on to show that the following people, at minimum, were neutralized in defense of the Petrodollar... They each attempted a competition with it:
* Saddam Hussein
* Muammar Gaddafi
* Dominique Strauss-Kahn (The fake sex scandal, not a murder of course)
(I might add Julian Assange to this list.)
Next up: Iran. The article talks at great length about how and when and why. Iran is actually starting to succeed now, trading Gold directly for oil with China and others... That's exactly why we're about to go to war. Time is of the essence.
So who is involved in this protection? Just the president you ask?
Sadly, there are far more involved in this need to protect the petrodollar than just some Oil execs or even Ben Bernake. If you want to call this a "conspiracy," (I don't, I call this business as usual) then it is a conspiracy of hundreds; It would have to include many dozens of government officials here from the POTUS and his staff to the DOE staff to the foreign staff in oil-rich nations, to our allies in those nations, and even to the corporate execs at all of the major oil firms.
Literally hundreds of people aware of this protectionism and working toward protecting it at any cost. (With huge resources at their disposal to do so.)
So what else does the petrodollar stand in the way of, exactly?
I could go on and on... But the point is this giant problem is doing far more than killing our soldiers around the world; it is killing & retarding our babies with BPA, keeping us all living with growing smog & pollution, keeping us using shitty little batteries, making the damn planet hotter, and oh yeah, keeping us from being free and having an honest government.
Yes, laws like the NDAA need to be passed mainly in order to control us from fighting the petrodollar. :glowingeyes_sml:
Without a doubt, this is the biggest issue of our times; 'Murika is the Hitler of the 21st century. (Actually far worse by body count alone.)
How much longer can this last? How can it be stopped?
What happens to the economy/government/environment when it finally falls?

History lesson from the Article above said:

* Muammar Gaddafi

* Ron Paul, or any Libertarian in high office. -The Constitution would stop their game cold if allowed to be effective.
* ALL FORMS OF GREEN ENERGY. Solar, wind, hydro, fuel cells, LENR, you name it; it is being held WAY back so that oil still reigns supreme. None of these get even 5% of the subsidies that Oil does. This is likely why GE Really killed the electric car.
* Large-scale lithium battery production. Why is it that battery companies can crank out infinite lithium AA, camera, and laptop batteries yet when car maker attempt to put them into cars they tell us they are too expensive to be practical?
* ALL NON-Petro-based plastics and materials. Did you know that algae and mosses both make a far superior, cheaper, healthier form of plastic than Oil does? There is no reason this should be held back for years now, but it has been.
* Acknowledgement of Global Warming. Every year a few more FACTS slip through that show very well that AGW exists. Climate Scientists do NOT dispute it between themselves, they know the Earth is getting hotter pretty fast. Sadly, FAR more propaganda is published every year that says those kooky scientists are making all that hogwash up to get funding... Allowing the oil to flow freely.
* Full protection from BPA. BPA, or bisphenol A, naturally occurrs in all petro-based plastic, and it's costly to get this poison out, but people have been suffering various effects like retardation, cancer and even death from BPA since the 1970s. Other countries have banned BEP-laden plastics wholly but not here; we use too much of it. WalMart is voluntarily banning it now, but the USGov still doesn't care.
