Message: India the latest to reduce dollar reserves

I wrote about this previously, but it bears repeating.

The Dollar Index is itself a devious illusion, a fake, a method of manipulation, to keep the ignorant just that, ignorant. Think about what the Dollar Index really is. It's a device used to compare one reserve fiat against a basket of other fiat currencies.

All fiat currencies are pieces of paper, or electronic data, that governments say are used to pay and collect taxes, and conduct transactions in our daily lives. We use these pieces of paper because the governments tells us to use them, and also because it's just generally easier to buy and sell things when everyone uses the same units.

The Dollar Index tells us how much a Dollar is worth compared to other currencies. This means, for example, that if the U.S. created more Dollars out of thin air tan the EU created Euros, then the Dollar would have less value compared to the Euro.

Everyday, in the currencies markets, traders are setting currency values on their perception of what a currency should be worth. In other words, all the currencies in the world are valued against each other based on the feelings of traders.

So the big question is, why isn't the Dollar falling? The Dollar Index is the answer. Yes, the Dollar is rising and falling everyday there is trading of currencies. The trend has been lower, but very slowly. Why?

The Dollar's value falls compared to what? Other currencies. In this unique time in history there is a global depression taking place, every country's economy is failing at the same time, AND, every country is doing exactly the same thing at the same time to try and prevent the system of moneys (monetary system) from failing and collapsing.

The result of all countries doing the same thing at the same time, printing or creating money out of thin air, means the device used to measure the Dollar's value. the Dollar Index, essentially doesn't move up or down much.

The Dollar Index is being used to pull the biggest con, on the whole world, the world has ever seen. As long has all countries create money at the same time, currencies values against other currencies values will remain stable.

Commodity prices are also relatively stable as well. Yes they go up but they also go down, too. So why aren't they screaming higher with all the money printing all over the world? Because all commodities don't come from outer space. They come form countries, the same countries that are printing money the same as all other countries that have commodities. Since the money used to buy commodities remains stable against each other, the prices of all things, including commodities, therefore remain stable.

The end result is that a commodity will rise and fall in price based on the supply of the commodity, and how much demand there is for the commodity, just like it always has before every country started printing money at the same time.

The only fly in the honey is that commodities that are scarce will rise in price because there's more demand than what can be supplied. However, with the world economies all declining at the same time, demand, even or scarce commodities, is declining, therefore prices aren't rising right now, even with the the rapid money printing the world over. They're counter-balancing each other, for now.

Enter gold and silver.

Guess what, the Dollar is the world's currency, still, so prices of just about everything are still priced in Dollars. What's the Dollar doing? Remaining relatively stable against other currencies because traders feel that way. Even if the traders are governments, they're still traders and feel like keeping values stable.

But gold and silver are scarce and they're also real money, history says so. However, gold and silver aren't included in the Dollar Index as a currency. That's the con. Real money isn't included. The fiat money traders, managers if you will - governments and big banks - know what's happening. They know that if feelings change about the value of paper, then everyone and their uncle would want to have and use real money instead of pieces of paper.

Since gold and silver are so scarce, it's a tiny market, easy to control with just a little bit of the commodity. Therefore, to keep the paper currencies as the desired medium of exchange, keep the prices of gold and silver low buy selling a little bit every time it normally would rise is price, alerting to everyone that there's something wrong with the paper money. Keep people feelings about real money very low. No excitement allowed in the gold and silver markets, nor the mining companies that produce gold ad silver.

So there's really two cons taking place:

1. Keep paper stable via the Dollar Index,

2. Keep real money low in value.

As long as the cons are maintained, power remains with the people that hold the real money. He who owns the gold holds the power. Also control the news medias to keep the serfs ignorant and complacent. Easy enough, just own the media and dictate what's news. I won't mention the name of the biggest, bought and paid for, news service there is, but its initials are CNBC.
