2014 is shaping up as a year of reckoning for the United States. Two pressures are building on the US dollar. One pressure comes from the Federal Reserve’s declining ability to rig the price of gold as Western gold supplies shrivel and market knowledge of the Fed’s illegal price rigging spreads.

Washington uses the dollar-based international payments system to inflict damage on the economies of countries that resist Washington’s political hegemony.
