Will the US succeed in breaking Russia to maintain dollar hegemony?...

- Clive Maund -

It is easy to forget Occam's Razor in regards to Ukraine.

For the same reasons that the North attacked the South during the US Civil War, so does Ukraine attack its own people in the East.
It is all about money in the form of resources needed to service debt.
If a chunk of any nation goes away, so goes away a chunk of a very important and needed tax base.
International debt can't be serviced.
Ukraine WILL default unless and until it can bomb them damn easterners into submission.

In this article we are going to look at what is arguably an even bigger reason, that was largely omitted in the earlier article, which is that... Read More
