why dont we ask Hugo Chavez for help?? Hell, we could remonetize in a
fair way and ask Hugo to let us broker all Venezuelean oil earmarked to
Amerika thru us, and payable in OUR currency. This is 17% of Amerikas
oil supply after all. Amerika will collapse without this oil, and so
will the Federal Reserve. While I dont advocate letting our Amerikan
brothers starve without oil, I would advocate the collapse of the
Federal Reserve, and now there would be a viable currency...OURS!! We
just dont sell oil to Amerika except in our currency..
Hugo would love this on many levels... and Cascadia would then be in
charge of many of this continents resources and the money itself...
handled right it could usher in a new era... and could bring a
crushing blow from Amerika...
What are your thoughts??? I will go down and see if I can get an
audience with Hugo... anybody with me???
No we dont have the
infrastructure, nor do we want it!! We only BROKER the deal... Make
the money, OUR money.
Realize that Amerika is already dependant on Venezuela for 17%
of "its" oil. Without this oil Amerika crumbles. Tired of powerful
corporations, now you have the power to do something about it!! WE
would control the currency that 17% of the oil is traded for in
Amerika and have a HUGE voice.
Realize that Venezuela is sitting on the largest pool of oil outside
of the Persian Gulf and is engaged in a leftist revolution and
targeted by the neocons. Russia and China both are selling them
weapons like crazy to defend themselves. Already the MiG29SMT's that
Hugo has based in Cuba could kill all Amerikas oil refining capacity
along with any ship (including carrier groups) within range with
thier Russian made Onyx missiles. This is the ONLY reason we havnt
invaded already, its just TOO risky for America. This solution would
put a friendly, and American, buffer between them and Amerika. It
would work..
Meanwhile, we do what responsible people should do; use the proceeds
of our wealth to force change, because oil is not going to be here
much longer. Russia, China, and many South American Countries would
support us 100%
You guys are just thinking too small...
