Presenting De-Dollarization In One Simple Map
Sometimes a picture is indeed worth a thousand words (or a thousand yuan) which is why we present the following map which shows all of the countries that have joined the China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank with no comment other than to say "spot the odd G-7 nations out"...

Meh,
Who is gonna go tits up first? Not the USA. This dog and pony show has a long run ahead.
It's taken 5 years to kick Greece out of the club, and it still isn't a done deal.
US will kick it off. Have to take the US down first, after all, this is about transferring power from west to east
First, no one knows, but it's fun to shoot the shit.
I think the old politics will be in deep doo doo everywhere, and cities will take the worst of it.
The new maps won't look much like the old ones.
"The Reds are coming...!!"
The feds are coming.....
fify
better dead than red....
Better Red than Fed
The Reds are selling!
The reds are coming ... and buying all your real estate.
They can has your country.
so how are those Russian sanctions working out for ya anyway?
Correct. As sorry as conditions have sunk to here, we still represent liberty and individual freedom. Then there's that pesky Second Amendment they have so spectacularly failed at eradicating (see Sandy Hook). That's where Jade Helm steps in. Cataclysmic changes here by October first.
Something tells me that the elite don't give a damn one way or another...
"You can take that to the bank" - Hard to Kill
Sure as hell have not yet.
You can take my guns after I empty them.
We have far too an entrenched MIC for it to happen in the US first. Trust me, Washington lobbyists and Locheed will be pushing droning starving zombies to death as they approach DC before the US collapses. The government has massive contingency plans, continuity of government bunkers, and storage warehouses, and they'll use them all up before they'd even consider folding.
The US ends when there's a few thousand people inside Mt. Weather and Site R, all barking orders out over the radio -- with no one left that listens to them or cares. And even then they'll still believe they're the ones in power because of the shiny red button they've got.
Just because it makes for cheesy movie plots doesn't mean it won't happen:)
I say we get us some of them fracking machines and go after the bastards in their hidey-holes...
They just reopened Cheyenne Mountain! All the DUMBs are as stocked as they'll ever be. MIC does not care about borders. Europe, UK, Australia have all been disarmed. It is clear many are not taking Jade Helm seriously. The chess pieces are in place or will be by July 15th. It's almost showtime!
@ Team,
Question therein remains. Will these Criminal Psychopaths even make it to the DUMBs? Something about "behind every blade of grass."
When they really do decide to pull the trigger -- pardon the pun -- on this, I suspect that we'll see the VIPs relocate prior to the events. If a bunch of TPTB people in congress suddenly pull a Putin-like disappearing act, I'd be very alarmed. It makes the most sense for them to do this when nothing is in session and everyone is on "vacation." That also makes is easier to justify using executive action rather than congress as well.
To much info wars bro ... Besides they are preparing and so are we. We already have people on the inside who are mixed in, they just don't know it.
Those of us in flyover country might be tempted to make sure that they don't get much in the way of food if they want to play that game.
On the contrary. It's all radioactive now, so keep producing as much as you can, and live life to the fullest on their dime.
It isn't about saving up for retirement anymore.
I freelance over th? internet and earn about 80-85$ an hour. I was without a job for 7 months but last month my paycheck with big fat bonus was $15000 just working on my computer from my home for 5-6 hours. Here's what i have been doing... www.globe-report.com
That just about leaves the Polar Bears, Penguins, Lions, Elephants and Narwals holding the bag... Oh and of course the welfare state and newly minted upper lower class.
No animals left in the northern Pacific. You must mean the Atlantic.
The welfare state will go a scavaging and become targets of opportunity. And if it gets that bad, the scavengers need to made an example of. Like a video tape of 4 of them being pushed thru a hydraulic chipper.
And some of you think the dollar charade can go on for years! The fat lady is warming up.
That fat lady's name is Hillary.
Cankula to you.
She is Empress Cankulus in her mind.

Man you're a doomers doomer huh?and like Y2k and thr end if the world , when nothing happens you will move on to something else... Galati os really.
Nunavut?
You keep bringing that up. Got a snow bunny up there, or a couple of tons of Marker's Mark?
You wouldn't hold out on your homies, would you knucks?
Me? Hold out on my brothers?
Even I have no idea why I keep wondering about up there Great Slave Lake way.
Did you know that Hellen Keller had a tree house in her back yard?
Neither'd she.
Wonders will never cease.
I bought a painting today, so I am now a patron of the arts,
which only proves that any damn thing can happen.
They're painting pornos now?

All fine and dandy but if/when the USA no longer buys Chinese shit products...........then what? I am still waiting for that answer because all the world combined wouldn't even make a dent in our Wal Mart shopping asses.
Walmart is moving to China.
But will be rebranded as "Price Low Number One Red King Box".
In China, Walmart is nummer one.
Walmart love you long time, 1 dollah
The BRICS have about half the world's population, more than enough aspiring middle classers to replace the former middle classers of the USA.
It is the US sheeple that depend on buying cheap Chinese shit because they are either too poor or because the US doesn't make anything anymore.
The Chinese are buying their own shit products now, and there are billions of them. They don't need American consumers for jack anymore. The arrogance of the idea that the rest of the world cannot survive without us buying their stuff is truly amazing.
If we lose the US dollar as the reserve, you'll be paying Waldorf Astoria prices for Chinese goods. Luxury if you can afford it. Otherwise, it will be made in Detroit. Ugh.
Good luck believing that.
US population is about 1/4 that of China.
Big clue as to the relative sizes of their economies if the Chinese do start buying all their own shit.
Maybe they'll start demanding improved quality. That in itself would go a great distance toward leveling the playing field.
If that be the case what are they waiting for ?
>>>The arrogance of the idea that the rest of the world cannot survive without us buying their stuff is truly amazing.
Thank you for making that succinct point.
Every 20 years or so, I find myself in Washington DC. This year, more than ever, it smells like dead people.
Walmarts have been closing...
Canada's still the US's bitch though.
Canada is America's hat:
http://production.cdn.annarbortees.com/public/spree/products/33765/large...
Canada does as it's told.
They are good boys and girls.
Yes. The national mantra is "Be nice"**
Canadians are worldly and independent thinking, and usually are, except when taking their queues and global priorities (marching orders) from DC, NY, London and Tel Aviv. Then they toe the line, like the good little colonials they are.
** You often it said in conversations: "Oh, he/she is so nice... They weren't nice at all... Oh, that was a nice thing to do... We're much nicer than Americans..."
Having just travelled from UK to Canada via US where I overheard a flight attendant taking the piss out of Canadians for being 'nice'.
Comparing UK, US and Canadian service in stores, on the flights and border officials, US comes a very poor 3rd.
US is a 3rd world country.
Canada's official head of government is the Queen of England. Don't mean to be offensive and other heads of governments are not much better, but it's a simple fact: If you're Canadian then you're an imbecile.
Her Majesty is the Head of State.
That asshole whats-his-face is the head of government.
The talking heads on the telescreens don't speak for everyone.
I can't help but notice Canada's postion as a buffer between to two Empires.
Hope they don't end up like Poland did in 1939, I will miss their beer and cheap hookers.
Canada has better banks.
Better Red than dead
Forgot the Crimea.
and Kaliningradskaya Oblast
Whatever. Banking is a sham.
What a pretty map. Red mean happiness to the Chinese, you'll see a lot of red when you go visit there.
USSA Brain drain in 3, 2, 1....
Get to Australia.
We're set to issue 5 million visas this year. That's big considering we only have a popof about 23million.
It's a pity so few of those visas will be issued to Americans. But I guess they know better than 5 million other nationals...
"You guys are missing the story, OK?"

Smart Americans know that already, they know their lives in America is stagnate from here on out.

Why is Australia trying to increase it's population so quickly?
Be careful, there may be an influx of Californians looking to trade one desert for another.
The influx of Chinese and Indians is a counterweight to religion of peace immigrants who flock to welfare handouts.
The current government has slowed the inflow of the latter by turning around the boats they used to enter Australia illegally, but those who are here breed like cockroaches, helped by numerous welfare scams that we are too PC to stop.
However the Chinese and Indians actually work, are relatively young and educated, and they aren't burdened by the PC sensibilities of the rest of us, so they will eventually act to stop the scams so beloved of the religion of peace.
hehe thanks for the heads up. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for them.
Plenty of room here in this 'desolate wasteland' though. Although, I may start to get concerned when our population hits 200million because then we might have to actually try to farm rather than export the massive surplus we produce every year.
I'm not saying our farmers don't try. It's just that we are not going anywhere near the lengths that other countries go to to grow food.
I would think that it would start to feel crowded after 50 million, how much of the land is comfortably habitable?
U seriouuuus?
Have you heard of multi-level buildings?
How many people live in London? How many Londons can you fit in to Tasmania?
According to Wikipedia, London's pop is 17times as dense as Perth, Western Australia. Perth has a pop of 2million. So just to get Perth on the same level as London we'd need over 30million people to move here.Then do a similar thing with the other cities and towns and you easily hit 200million.
I've been to London and it is not overcrowded unless you go to one of the tourist spots.
I didn't know you were looking to create London Down Under, but I suppose that I have a different comfort level of population density. I always thought one of the most attractive features of Australia was its wide open spaces.
Maybe the Queen will ship over some more convicts to get the ball rolling.
but 813kml
At one time or other you could have said that about Malibu, the Hamptons and Palm Beach.
Jest sayin'
Of course there's physical room. But if you fill the country with Indians and Pakistanis Australia becomes the Indian sub-Continent. That what you want? Fill it with for example the Swiss and it becomes like Switzerland.Think about that.
Depends on your definition of comfortably - the less you need, the more room there is. The resource hogging waste generating obese consumerist habitats are already overcrowded, which might explain the lack of visas available for certain first world countries.
Californians are experts in turning green places INTO deserts. Australia is already a desert, they won't come here.
We already have a housing bubble; we don't need yours.
It's "STEALTH" cheap labour, We already have it in the UK . We no longer have skilled tradesman or craftsmen, we have now been flooded with cheap unskilled labour from eastern bloc EU countries. They live in comune, sometimes 8,10, even 12 to building, work for less money, lowering our standard of living and forcing down wages . The poles send their money back to Poland where it is worth double. "GOOD LUCK WITH THAT ONE"
And in 50 years the country will look like a combination of India and China. Good luck with that.
Mr Pxsytin says: "Get to Australia."
Are you serious? Australia is already socialist utopia. Your government contols everything down there. You just don't know it yet. Wait till they get taken out by big business and the big banks, and you'll see what little freedom you the common man really have...............
You were born in slavery and your country will die in slavery.

One of the nice, honest things about Australian government is that they already have their gold confiscation laws on the books; they're just not being enforced at the moment.
King Dollar!

Dollar is finished chaps! Te IMF will introduce a "new" world currency thus avoiding for the US to look like idiots that ran the system to the ground.
Is the new one named Ultra Coin?

Great word!
Can you fit it on a coin?
A World Currency will represent a fundamental element of the NWO.
It's The American Curse >>> http://wp.me/p4OZ4v-3z
As more and more countries use the AIIB and similar structures, and have bilateral trade in their own national currencies, the demand for US Dollars, Bonds and Treasuries will keep waning.
That's why USD-denominated Sovereign Debt may matter less and less, as a sovereign's Debt Repudiation leaves them with alternatives outside the USD sphere.
The next POTUS is gonna have to deal with the USD losing its GRC status -- and the consequences will not be pleasant. At the same time the US demographics is such that True Employment is getting worse, as are the number of Boomers retiring (earning less, using less, spending less, expecting more from the system they paid into...). One shudders.
wonder what idiot downvoted you?
I have a stalker: nailgunnin4you.
1/1/16 .or WWIII before then Jim.
Why 1/1/16?
SDR reforms are going thru' effective that date, whatever Uncle Sam says.
Thanks, Winston, I've already got 1/1/16 marked in my calendar but must add SDR reform in the note to self. "similar structures" coughUNcough as Kirk said...
The next POTUS is going to be up to their eyeballs in Fukushima radiation. That cat'll be well out of the bag by then.
How abouts national wage rated tarriffs by country? No special deals just a flat rate. Institute a flat tax both corporate and individual and let the tarriffs make up the dif. Back when the country was founded the .gov was funded entirely with tarriffs. That also brings jobs home and kills crony trade agreements.
" the consequences will not be pleasant"
More humanitarian bombings.
I saw a full dress military contengent accompanied by what looked like FEMA fuckers taking a management lead tour of costco this morning, what the fuck does that mean?
Regional food distribution centers when the lights go out.
The Waltons are the .001%. You know which way they swing.
Hopefully they will swing.
Right.
I suppose they all arrived in black helicopters, too.
Did not see one, I think it was one of them SUV land ships.
Pics? Video?
No time
For all the criticism around here of the misallocation of resources due to public malinvestment, there sure is a lot of rooting for yet another publicly funded entity that distorts markets
Japan?
A while back a lot of the world was pink; these areas were all pushed around by "Great" Britain.But now we're bloody Red; the Empire must have ended.
Red: It's the new green.
To get a better view of the de-dollarization, compare this map of Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank countries with countries already having a swap agreement with China for RMB. Canada (who seems to be important for a lot of American commenters) is already in the list and it is not the only additional countrie.
The big one missing are:
Total of these agreements cover 3,143 billions RMB - about 500 billions USD. It's a lot but in the meantime, in 2012, WTO estimates the world mechandize trade amount to 44,710 billions USD and 87% of transactions in Fx in 2013 were in USD.
Conclusion: De-dollarization is far from being done yet but a lot of people and countries are already working on it. USA have clearly lost the confidence of many major players in the world and the rest of the world is building an alternative system leaded by China.
wrong both India and S.Arabia are part of AIIB . India is expected to fet Vice President's position in AIIB .
The map I am talking is about swap agreements, not AIIB
japan has a swap agreement with china.
Not really a de-dollarization chart. Will that new China-led bank not be capitalized with...dollars ? ( USD 50 billion if I remember correctly, which is peanuts compared to the USD 3 trillion in US treasuries I read China holds/held )
Please, please don't leave me now..... I'll never do it again ma belle bebe, I promise.
