    Are there some experts in monetary policies here?
    Our currency (Mexican peso) hasn’t been getting destroyed compared to the dollar as opposed to those countries in the graph, I wonder why that may be?

Perhaps the first imperial core revolutions will have to take place in the US’s vassals.

      They’re happening in Latin America as we speak. A new American century is forming in the South. There is too much to even list. The world is turning it’s back on the West. Sure enough because of this Europe will see revolution, leaving North America standing alone.
