RE: Strategic ResourceA bit more on the subject:
By 2020 the Chinese economy will have doubled and we have no doubt that the Yuan will be the world’s ‘top dog’ currency, eclipsing the dollar. When that happens and it may be well before 2020, the dollar like all other global currencies will have to pay its own bills with goods not simply freshly printed dollars. This is the "Why" part from my "paint a picture for you" post.
Now that the cat is out of the CUU bag... The NTL needed a year round customer and not just a handfull of regtag operators. They needed a core economic driver! With the demand for good for debt Canada has no choice but to develop resources. We are number 148 on the world balance sheet! Our politicians going back 40 years should all be rounded up and shot for this. Here's the bright side. We can pay off the debt faster as the prices are so much higher. Then barring the public allowing more stupidity from the politician we will all become rich!
Do the math. Try to explain why we are sooo broke when we should be rich. Only one answer comes up. FRAUD, on the grandest scale allowed by a stupid population. However, we no longer TRUST our governements. The jig is up and they have to find new ways to defraud us. Technically, we have not benefited from the debt they Faust upon us and we should just refuse to pay it. Let the politicians pay for it! Unfortunately, Canadians could not stick together enough to resolve to do such a thing.
