Thursday December 18th Meeting #716
Open Forum – A Serious Change that May Spell Loss of the Dollar as World Currency, and Avoidance of the United States by Others with no Tariffs Between Them
Now through Security Action for Europe (SAFE), Japan, Turkey, Canada, South Korea are keen to join EU’s Scheme to Fund Defense Investment. Noteworthy, Earlier, the European Commission invited partners to join its 150-billion-euro program of weapons purchases for the EU. Countries outside the EU are planning to participate as weapons suppliers or invest in defense industrial production. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated on December 11 that the bloc’s initiative to fund defense investment is so oversubscribed by the member states that some are calling for a second SAFE instrument. Arguably, the balance of monetary funding will shift away from the United States, and we face a repeat of Smoot-Hawley, where we are isolated by others who desire to live and trade free of onerous tariffs,

Statement on Free Speech
Our constitution and laws encourage the freest possible exchange of opinions, ideas, and information. In part, that recognizes our worth and dignity as human beings. To forbid us to speak our minds demeans us and makes us more like slaves or robots than citizens of a free country. But as important as freedom of expression is for us as individuals, it is perhaps more important to society at large.
