ONLY currency used to trade oil...

Doesn't it make sense to bring ALL service members stationed overseas home ASAP? Before we can't afford to bring them back?

Doesn't it make sense to close ALL forward bases, since we LEASE the land that our service members live on overseas?

Last night I read that the change from the dollar to a "basket of currencies" would lead to WWIII, the breakup of the United States, and the "end of empire". Doesn't it make sense to bring ALL of our service members home?

How much money do you think we pay other countries to have our precious treasure (American Citizens) on their soil, ostensibly to secure their safety?

How much money do you think SUPPLY LINES alone cost the American taxpayer?

In light of yesterday's news about the change from the dollar to other currencies to trade oil, I think it's the only prudent move.

BRING THEM ALL HOME. Let those countries who've live under our umbrella fend for themselves in the "new world".

Or is this much ado about nothing?
