Setting aside any personal attacks on "Porter Stansberry", whoever he is, here are some facts about the World' Reserve Currency Issue:

Year 1999: US Dollar was 71% of the world reserve currency
Year 2012: US Dollar was 61.20% of the world reserve currency

In 13 short years, it dropped 9.8%

The US economy has slid from a peak of 32.2% of world GDP in 2001 to 23.7% currently, or a 8.5% drop.

Looks like 9.8% and 8.5%, respectively, seem to go hand-in-hand to some degree.

Quite frankly, the media and those who benefit from the federal gifts may be satisfied by BO's endless campaign speeches, but money and the real global players could care less. Because the decline seems to have been accelerating as the debt grows and the debt-acceleration go hand and hand, I am thinking the decline will speed up much quicker in the next few years. I am also guessing that our consitutional scholar of a president will somehow blame Bush, who does in fact have a share of the blame, but our BO has made it a point to rapidly increase the debt.

I wonder why ?
