        Gordon Brown is in charge of it.

        It's tainted, like sloppy seconds after a syphilitic, unwashed frenchman has been there. It needs to regain its virginity.

          I thought Galactic Credits were Cr, not GC. They certainly were in Elite, and that can't have been wrong.

          Can we have florins (10 Cr) and pieces of eight and shillings (5 Cr or 12 CR ?)) and a mark (1000 Cr ?) and a Lira (one squillion Cr) and, um, what other multiples?

            how about a Galactic Groat (1/8 Cr)
            or a Galactic Guinea (1.05 Cr)

              There is more to this than worrying about the stability of the dollar.

              If china et al drop using the dollar for buying oil / and for financial reserves, it will bring down the US.

              The US have used the dollar to effectively pay for oil without paying for it.

              Robert Newman, made a great analogy to Salvador Dali paying for his dinner in a restaurant: He would write a cheque, then on the back do a drawing and sign it. The restaurant owner wouldn't cash the cheque because it was worth more than the value it represented.

                  I understand that the banknotes will have a picture of a lizard doing a freemason.

                  Which explains where zeity and churchill have been.

                    Last year I recall reading a 'conspiracy theory' which claimed that an Elite Group based in the US would torpedo the Global Economy then cause the collapse of all Fiat currencies - anove all the US dollar - they would in effect create a Crises then give solutions for that 'Crises '- the soution being a New Global Currency issued by a New World Order.

                    Good job it was jall ust a conspiracy theory - eh ?

                    Now then - where did I put me WMDs ?

                      No - NWO is just a reptilian smokescreen.
