After the Petrodollar gradually falls I'd be hard pressed to find a viable replacement. I mentioned Wall Street as the best replacement but I think there would need to be a huge revamping to make it work. The U.S. used to run on hard work and innovation back in the 1800s and early 1900s. Every since 1913, it's been steady encroachment by con artists and charletons that think on a really really big scale that has been the norm, slowly squeezing out hard work like manufacturing and innovation to dependency on the casino operation. Pretty sickening. It isn't even a fair casino considering the fixing of LIBOR rates and the Federal Reserve fixing interest rates.
