This book crackles with the page-turning excitement of a spy novel or murder mystery as it tracks down those who are killing the U.S. dollar, and strips bare the secret agenda and tactics of those behind today's impending economic collapse. The current economic downturn-the worst since the Great Depression-will soon be replaced, this book predicts, by severe inflation that could destroy the value of the U.S. dollar. The dollar is the world's "reserve currency," used in international purchases of oil and other key commodities, and in central bank reserves that many other countries use to support their own currencies. Inflation is coming, this book argues, because the United States now has combined short-term and long-term obligations of more than $120 trillion. Crashing the Dollar offers ways to save our republic and, if we prepare wisely, ourselves from the death spiral of extreme debt and extremist politics that scheming politicians and radical activists have deliberately created.
