“THE COMING COLLAPSE OF THE PETRODOLLAR SYSTEM” BY JERRY ROBINSON

by: Jerry Robinson

[Editor's Note: Learn about a key aspect of our economic system that perhaps is not emphasized enough in its importance.  After the collapse of the Bretton Woods agreement and the gold standard, a scheme to prop up the U.S. dollar was devised and sold to the Arab nations by the Nixon administration.  In 1973 Henry Kissinger was sent over to negotiate this deal with the Saudis in which it was agreed that Saudi Arabia would trade her oil only in US dollars.  In return the Saudis received weapons and protection from the United States.  The OPEC nations by 1975 had followed suit...]
