<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSorbo, post: 2195110, member: 56370&quot;]Even with all of our economic problems I think the US Dollar still sucks the least, so it will continue to be a store of value of choice for the foreseeable future.&nbsp; At least we have only one dysfunctional government controlling our currency.&nbsp; Just think what it would be like if every region of the country had its own economic policy, with some like Germany and others like Greece.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t bet on the Euro crashing either though, because the benefits of keeping it together outweigh the chaos that would ensue if it broke apart.</p><p><br /></p><p>Other currencies such as the Swiss franc have their advantages, but their &quot;market caps&quot; are probably much too low to absorb the bulk of the world&#039;s investment holdings.&nbsp; The same goes with silver and gold.&nbsp; I may be in the wrong forum to say this, but I don&#039;t think there are enough precious metals to serve as the primary store of value in today&#039;s economy.&nbsp; Credit would be way too constricted.&nbsp; I agree that our current system of fiat currency is subject to eventual failure, but the alternative is even worse.&nbsp; I also agree with Winston Churchill that capitalism is the most evil economic system on the planet except for all the other ones...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
