In the near future (could be decades), US Dollar is going to stop being the 'world currency'. This has pretty huge implications. US is going to crumble.

Yeh - that would require a safe haven for money. Lets see...

>safe haven
It's already been proven people will accept paper backed by nothing. IMF SDR's would work just fine in that case (which has already been floated as an alternative).
Obvious bull trap is obvious and Gold is going back down to sub $1000 range very soon.

Well actually the people who are accepting that money still believe its backed by something of value...the minute they doubt that where will they go?

Im not talking about people in the streetsnot yet. It is up to the major players firstly when they stop 'believing' the money is backed by somehtin of value then what happens?
