The US shooting Venezuelan (Russian built) MIGs could be really dangerous
VHeadline.com commentarist Alfredo Bremont writes: In this decade black gold has displaced the yellow one ... it is no longer how many billions of gold bars that a nation has in his national bank reserves that signify anything, but rather how many billions of petrol reserves you have.
By this measure Venezuela is in quite a good position, since its (oil) reserves are worth a lot more than the value of the currency; while nations that have a lot less oil reserves have a higher currency in US$ and there is therefore an imbalance in the distribution of wealth.
As in our Venezuelan reality a US$ is worth 2,000 bolivares ... you need, more bolivares for a dollar than dollars for a bolivares.
It should, in fact, be the opposite since Venezuela's oil reserves are a lot larger than most nations on the planet. An inverted system call Wall Street, fabricated by the media to create make-believe wealth, confusing the mind.
A very elevated oil price will put oil rich nations were they belong ... Russia, and every other nation that is a large oil producer in this planet know it. Norway will run out of oil in 20 years and should not wait for that moment, but rather change and fine-tune it now for its own economic retirement.
Oil is in reality the most important asset we have ... just a few dollars higher oil prices can upset the world's stability. It is one thing if Microsoft crashes, but quite another would be a total oil blockade of the West.
Markets could collapse, and indeed national economies can slow down dramatically. The grand armada is not a US battlefield, a laser gun from space or the supercomputer ... its oil! Let’s see what Japan would become with a total oil blockade for a week.
This is why the US shooting Venezuelan (Russian built) MIGs could be really dangerous to the world's economy ... the US army should learn how to play the global financial system, since if you invade, you create havoc and there's no prize-winning. Vietnam has shown this; Grenada, North Korea etc., and the latest fiasco in Iraq.
- Certainly, so far, more of the enemy die than US soldiers ... but they have lost the war, their objective.
In a civilized world, reason should prevail ... especially if your aim is democratic rule. Believing that American WMD will defend the world is folly ... all they can do is destroy it.
To win in this global 21st century you had better reflect.
The progress in humankind is towards well-being ... not towards his destruction ... he naturally repels death and everything that creates it. His symbiosis with nature evolves likewise, perceiving a larger spectrum of colors, communicating with nature and understanding it.
The orange revolution ... a sign of Mother Nature's expression of grief over the excess of toxic waste industrial nations create ... means that oil should go up to $120 a barrel for starters ... to help the world's population understand how to respect nature.
The Venezuelan bolivar should break away from parity with the US dollar and create its own measure ... Venezuelan oil reserves are valued more than gold bullion in a bank.
By multiplying the quantity of oil reserves at current oil prices, equated by the amount of oil sold, balance in the price of oil will increase as reserves decrease ... meaning that as you have less reserves the price increases in local currency values. The bolivar increases versus other currencies which do not have large oil reserves and more clearly the oil rich nations will call the tune.
Hopefully through such a scheme, consumption of oil will diminish as will eventually poverty, leaving us to breathe cleaner air and live in an uncontaminated atmosphere as we evolve towards truly understanding nature.
- Corruption eliminated and exchanged for health and prosperity; happiness and a good life converted as benefits from high oil prices.
Once that wealth is democratically shared among the population, an unpolluted environment wills lift human intellect to a larger spectrum, easing pressure on the multitude of humans and their interdependent living organisms.
This synchronized existence with nature can help you live longer as it expands your mind.
