Those humanitarian funds are non-profit institutions, not the government. Are we talking about the government here or any institution?
The Euro is not breaking down the dollar. If you understand finance, since the loan rate of the dollar (federal interest rate) goes down, the value of the dollar goes down. This is controlled by our OWN government. If the Euro's interest rate does not get lowered by the same amount, then the Euro is worth more. There are other factors as well, but I believe this is probably the biggest one. | |  | |  | |
Iraqs Oil is pretty useless due to the fact they pump saltwater for pressure to get the oil up. If we were getting so much oil from Iraq why is the price of oil still going up and the goverment not opening its reserve?
Our own companies greed and their attempts to derail the dollar.They are now interested in gold have you noticed the price of gold and silver? And who is buying it?(helped by Gov Regulation!)
African countries are only good for dealing weapons to for diamonds. That how the Chinese and other Euro countries are getting rich.
In the mean time the idiots here unable to hustle a dollar like the good old days come up with scams to bilk the common man by offering loans and running up the price of housing until it Bursts!
This is also controlled by our good old Goverment and the think tanks who know how to run a spin on anything. The also know the public will eat it and ask for more!!!
The US goverment actually does give money away just like they tried to pay off North Korea to stop making Nuclear weapons. Most of those non for profit organizations take up to 65% of all monies they collect and its not taxable.
What a Goverment we have the public does not really even vote anymore?
