The U.S. Is Dominating the World with Money from “Stupid Nations”

The United States currently stands as the world’s only superpower. It holds power in many areas: politically, economically and militarily, but particularly in its political system.

However, the U.S. has accumulated so much debt to many countries in the world that it would in fact be declared bankrupt if its loans and balance of trade are calculated. It is even stranger that the more the U.S. owes, the more powerful it becomes and more overtly exerts pressure on other countries. Why is this so? The reason is simple: the U.S. never has to repay its debts as long as it continues to print money. Naturally, the U.S. also has a better strategy — while “stupid nations” are happily calculating their interests on loans, the U.S. devalues it is currency to gain from the change in the exchange rates. The last resort that the U.S. has is to declare war or wage a proxy war to resolve its debt crisis, or even to create particular situations that these “stupid nations” would fall for. In view of these possibilities, it can be concluded that “stupid nations” are merely working toward their own demise when they service the U.S.

Although the U.S. owes the world a lot of money, it is not urgent for the country to sell more in order to repay its debts. In fact, apart from a few key allies, the U.S. will not export its high-tech products, modern military arms and goods by important economic sectors, and especially not its non-renewable resources, like those buried deep underground, because those resources are sold to the U.S. almost for free by “stupid nations.” Besides, if any nation decides to provide less to the U.S., the U.S. will pressure them to do otherwise.

To conclude, we must be very clearheaded when dealing with the U.S.’ selfish strategies; it will indeed be disheartening if we continue to act foolishly.


美国在用“愚蠢国家”的钱称霸世界
美国现在世界上唯一的超级大国,十分强大。美国在各个方面:政治上、经济上、军事上都很强大,特别强大的是美国的政治制度。
  但是美国又欠世界上许多国家钱,如果算算美国产出和收入、借贷,美国应该在经济上已经破产了。奇怪的是欠钱越多、美国越是强大、越是张牙舞爪、到处干涉、到处侵略、到处行使霸权,这是为什么?。原因很简单,美国欠的钱永远都不用还,美国只要开动印纱机,不停地印纱票就可以了。当然美国还有更厉害的一招,当 “愚蠢国家”占占自喜地计算着利息时,美国把美元贬值让别国外汇马上就缩水。美国最后一招就是,如果美国欠“愚蠢国家”的钱到了美国无法忍受,美国就发动战争或者是通过代理人战争来解决欠债问题,或者制造各种事端让债权国就范。存在着这样的可能性,“愚蠢国家”在喂饱美国的同时、自己走的毁灭。
  美国是欠世界很多钱,但美国不急于通过出售来还钱。除了几个个铁哥们,高科技的产品、现代的军事产品、重要实业,美国都是不卖的。特别是不可再生的矿藏,如稀土更是深理地下,因为完全可以从“愚蠢国家”以几乎是“白给”的价格得到。如果现在有人想少给或不给美国,美国将给予巨大的压力。
  总之,在美国自私自利战略面前需要清醒的头脑,老是愚蠢下去是可悲的。
