Venezuela has the largest oil reserves. In. The. World.  It's heavy oil and requires fracking. They have started a new currency with crypto called the Petro (not likely to go anywhere).  They have invited the Chinese who are oh so eager to buy oil in yuan and technology (stolen or given to them via unsecured servers in the US).  Interestingly, Saudis are selling oil to China in yuan. The Chinese own part (probably a substantial part) of Saudi oil production tech.   Russia is selling oil to China in yuan.   The yuan, gold backed, is trying to become the new default world reserve currency replacing the petrodollar/dollar which has produced at least $200,000,000,000,000, that's trillion, of debt that cannot be repaid, not even interest serviced.   The world is renouncing the dollar in its present form.  This fiat debt instrument will retain some value but will be increasingly shunned by the producers of the world. Interestingly, the true international value of the dollar is it's inherent ability to collapse nations...nations are learning not to play. Who is pissed off here?  Well, the consortium of private banks that have foisted the fiat debt based fractional reserve banking system called the Federal Reserve.  The petrochemical/petroleum industry that is being cut out of the picture by Russia and China.  The neocons (placed Pence in the VP role) who never see a situation that war doesn't benefit them.  Trump is being goaded into war and it will likely be civil and international at once if he plays by their rules. Usually, only after a God-awful, bloody war plays out, those funding both sides, the private international banksters, swoop in and divide up the spoils, imposing a new default world currency, sponsored militarily by the "winners". It might be worth "jumping the shark" excluding the private banksters from the system first while defending the hemisphere. Globalists depend on fiat.  Nationalize the banks and back the new petrodollar with oil and a basket of commodities including gold and silver.  As far as the oil, we will either take Venezuela quickly or the Chinese will take it eventually.  Cheap crude is NiOX to the Chinese military/manufacturing engine. I want to be the first to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! It's good to be King, eh Donnie!
