It will last forever and it will continue to bail out other sh^thole countries like Russia.

When was the last time you saw sh^tholes like India, China or Russia bail out another country???

You gotta learn to face reality.

China has bailed out a few countries more recently. Something no one other then the US had done.

We are on the cusp of a global economic shift. This oil price drop doesn't just happen for no reasons. There are huge monetary shifts happening.

My guess is China

The only one that is on a cusp is Canada, put there by selfie boy.

Funny how I also predicted he would win a majority back a few years ago when he won the party leadership.

A prediction I made on these forum boards.
Everyone laughed at my prediction.

Big spread on LNG prices tho.



Hahaha quality products????? Like the milk they produced that killed thousands hahaha, good one dude!!

China is not stupid, it knows who butters it's bread,,,the USA!!
The US is a debter nation, if China called in it's markers from the US they would not be able to pay it and they would become so poor they would be asking Haiti for some aid.

people our of work. Refine Canadian oil and sell it don't do world pricing and screw

The US has something like 40% of all the wealth in the world. No problem for the US,
Yes, BIG problem for the US. Your county isn't $16 trillion in the hole. The US REAL debt is closer to $65 trillion in the hole. To put it bluntly, the US govt would have to sell off 100% of their holdings/assets. Every single corporation in America would have to sell off 100% of their assets. Every other business in America would have to sell 100% of their assets, and about two-thirds to three-quarters of the population would have to sell off 100% of their personal assets just for your country to break even. And that doesn't even touch the deficit.


The US might have something like 40% of the world's wealth, but it owes 99.9% of that in debts.

The U.S. is basically - um, not even basically - it is broke! It's using borrowed money to pay their daily bills so it's not even for things like infrastructure and such. You can't continue borrowing like that - something's gotta happen and it will.....eventually. The politicians are covering up just how bad it is.

The US has a large capacity to pay its debt as shown by the Debt to GDP Ratio.

Canada is just behind the US in Debt To GDP Ratio.

But we here in Canada are solvent . We may be looking at 30 billion dollar deficits but we can bask in the glow
of solvency .

That means the Yuan will take a huge market share of the global world economy trade reserves currency demand.

That will hurt the green back as demand for it will fall.

Any reason why the Chinese are deliberately depreciating the Yuan?
