Which country is safest from US Dollar Collapse?

[McChronagle]

I guess this is the million dollar question. I am about to invest and im looking to get into foreign investments. But all of this talk about how deeply seeded the dollar crisis could be around the world has me thinking why bother investing in the first place and get metals instead? So is there a country that has been smart enough to truly be safe from a coming US dollar crisis?

[PeacePlan]

They all go down with the mother ship US dollar..

[muh_roads]

Silvergoldistan's currency will do well.

[libertybrewcity]

Switzerland? New Zealand? Gold, silver.

[cubical]

There will be temporary pain in the countries that export to us, but ultimately they will reap the benefits of our demise(assuming the ditch our dollar).

[Carson]

Iran?

[swissaustrian]

I wouldn´t bet on any fiat currency, because all central banks hold USD reserves.
Zimbabwe is debating a return to a gold / diamond standard right now, maybe Mugabes country is the place to go

A Caribbean island where you can mostly live off the land away from populated areas. The people least affected will be the people least intertwined with the financial scheme that is going on.

[asurfaholic]

any country that is rich in natural resources. South America has a few. America itself could heal, there may be plenty of business opportunites here after the fall of an overbearing government.

Iran?

yes ive heard with ron paul being ok with them building a nuke it is now a better time than ever to invest in their uranium enrichment program. ill look into it.

[ctiger2]

Iran?

+1 Iran has their own central bank not affiliated with the Rothschilds and they've been buying lots of Gold. The US wants to attack them to install a Rothschild central bank AND steal the Gold/Oil.

I would think that most of these islands are heavily dependent on tourism for revenue to import basic items like food, fuel, spare parts, etc. I'd hate to be stuck on such an island when the tourism industry collapses in a SHTF scenario.

Antarctica.

spare parts/fuel sure, food... no. most of the people on the islands are pretty self sustaining. i guess it all depends on how simply/complex you want to live.

I think China will be the greatest place to be, because if the dollar collapses that will force China to raise interest rates and that will eventually force a stronger RMB and you will be safe.

[Seraphim]

Only if they peg the RMB to gold (or something of the like).

The RMB is pegged to the USD and a lot of China's wealth is reliant on it's biggest customers - USA.

[McChronagle]

ive been hearing recently that Switzerland is considering pegging their currency to the euro. the increase in swiss franc value is hurting their exports and of course they think intervention is necessary. maybe a swiss company that does not depend much on exports would be a good place to look? what do you think?

[_b_]

I don't think pegging your currency to the Euro would be much better than the dollar, at least not in the long run.

[YumYum]

East Los Angeles.

[Seraphim]

Maybe, but I'm pretty sure we will follow you into the fire pit. So I'm not sure I'd count on it...I'd stay away from the cities at least.

[libertybrewcity]

iceland!

[Seraphim]

I agree 100%, actually.

iceland!

[Jingles]

Probably Iceland and Switzerland. Maybe New Zealand.

[Krugerrand]

North Korea would have been my first guess, but then I remembered they have their own counterfeiting system ... so that'll hurt them.

[LibForestPaul]

Not exactly certain what you are looking for, but I'll throw some names out...
Australia (Pacific Rim, trade, natural resource, parliament)
New Zealand 2nd (tied to Australia)
Argentina (if 1st world goes with IMF and WTO, think regime change will occur)
Iran (persia, dim stature of Saudi Arabia and Israel with US tanking)
India (if no war with Pakistan)
South Africa (maybe)
England (were top before America)
Canada(if align with England)

big losers...
Japan (food)
China (feudalism)

[QE Is Theft]

I wouldn´t bet on any fiat currency, because all central banks hold USD reserves.

And Euros....swiss national bank just recently was gobbling them up along with dollars to weaken the franc.

[DamianTV]

Somebody posted a news article about Russia looking at re-embracing the Gold Standard. Not sure if there is any truth as Russian Media is State Run, so that story could also be Total Propoganda.

[outspoken]

I still think the US is the place to be as long as you don't live in an urban area. We have lots of natural resources and we just need a restructing that has sound money and gets the federal government out of the everyday lives of all Americans. There will be a period of psychological difficulty as those most dependent off of government, i.e. their fellow man/taxpayer, are weened off... I think we can anticipate a rise in violence and suicides if/when SHTF.

The entire world is tied together by the Rothschilds except for Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Cuba, Libya and recently Iceland. The collapse of our dollar and the EU, which will probably happen together, will be felt throughout the world and nowhere is going to be "safe".
I would hold off on Iceland since they have not been hit with any repercussions yet.
Iran could be attacked at any moment.
Libya will probably fall soon.
Sudan could fall at any moment and they are a big target under NATO crosshairs.
North Korea does a lot of business with China, so any shocks felt there would have an adverse effect and of course there is always the possibility of renewed fighting.
Cubans Set for Big Change: Right to Buy Homes This might be something worth looking into as they are making a lot of other changes also.
