Jim Rickards: The U.S. is the World's Largest Currency Manipulator

While I am not one to watch / browse much of anything posted on CNBC, I came across this interview via another blogger, and found it to be one of the better summaries in terms of the U.S. / Fed potentially “manipulating”, or purposely seeking the demise of the U.S. Dollar.  It was posted last Tuesday, but worth the quick 5 minute watch for explaining why the United States could have recently sought to bring down the value of it's currency while the government officials and/or politicians point the finger in other general directions.  Think what you will, but logistics are logistics and this is just one way of bringing back the country's sadly missed economic prosperity. Whether the government would do something like this outright or simply “don't know how” is the only matter to speculate. “Currency Wars” is getting good reviews, strongly in part with the controversial nature of what is being said here…..where there is controversy, there are ratings. Enjoy.
