That the dollar is greater than honor, is the "Pseudo Economic Theory".

Like the rich and intelligent have used the stock markets to loot the unsuspecting common man, America has used the dollar to conquer the world, and now conquers the world to protect the dollar. Even though many may disagree with me, the stock markets are actually a venue for government sponsored gambling and the trade goes up and down on speculation & manipulation. But since this has been a baiting trick of all aggressor nations of the last two centuries, this particular form of making money without working, has become popular and acceptable among the lazy rich around the world, and has been nourished by every man's basic instinct to earn a quick buck even at the risk of losing everything. Even the people rated as the richest on the worth of their stock holding, will not be worth even a hundredth of their ballooned image, if they really wanted to sell it. But somehow our entire economy runs on this fallacy. And I am sure that this will continue only till such time, the little boy makes the king realize that he is naked & what a fall that will be.

Similarly the American economy thrives on the sheer fact that the dollar is the international currency. The huge borrowings from many countries and the budget deficits clearly indicate to this fact. If it were not to protect the dollar, why would some country in some northwestern continent on the globe want to have military bases around the earth? Why would they want to police & interfere in the internal administration of every other country, send their military on false intelligence reports around the globe, even take the risk of sacrificing their own personnel, if it were not to protect the dollar? I believe that Iraq was attacked only to scuttle their attempt to trade oil in Euro and now Iran. I challenge, that if the international currency is changed to any other currency, the American economy will burst like the balloon it is.
