<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GSDykes, post: 2194572, member: 73321&quot;]here&#039;s my 2 cents: IF Greece jumps out it will increase the value of the dollar world wide. Other nations will seek its refuge (the dollar), due to its history and security. The Chinese Yuan is pegged to the dollar! The Euro will sink but slowly stabilize, (due mostly to Germany). Our resources are strong, our military is strong, our technology is strong, our pharmaceuticals are strong, we &quot;own&quot; China, and we are the now world&#039;s largest producer of petroleum. We have vast reserves of coal and natural gas, fracking is producing more oil than we can use, we now export. The only negative is our own debt. With good leadership and some tightening we can manage the debt in time. Hence, the dollar should remain strong. Biblically speaking, (and I do deep studies of the Scriptures, and may offer an opinion, just an opinion!) --&nbsp; gold and silver will remain very valuable even to the end, this is revealed in the Biblical text. If the U.S. is the Babylon of Revelation (with all of its riches) then we will continue to dominate world economics for at least another decade. However, if a particular religion is the Babylon, then we will simply ride her coattails, and be subject to famine and who knows what. Our moral decline is a major issue, if we decline much further, I really fear some coming judgment (much greater than 9/11).&nbsp; However, God is patient, and such judgment may be several decades away. Our food and environment is slowly killing us (additives, pesticides, herbicides, antibiotics, over processing, radiation, EMR&#039;s, etc). SO........gold and silver should remain attractive, but I see no big windfalls on the near horizon. Greece does not impact our economics directly, it is all filtered through the EU, which filter will enhance the dollar as insecurity mounts for awhile within the EU. Let&#039;s see if in the next election we can tighten our <span style="color: #ff0000">OWN</span> belts, and control our own budget. (Which I really think does not influence our macroeconomics much, more on a national level). If we tighten our &quot;belts&quot; silver should increase. As in the days of prior depressions (or economic &quot;tightenings&quot;) silver and gold increased, the paper sank. Only the good Lord knows what will transpire. It is kind of interesting, is it not? I am out of breath. Thats my 2 cents.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
