Us went bankrupt by vietnam
Tried to break the bretton woods gold standard
France was like no
Us doubled down and devised a global fiat regime
Oil must be sold in USD and faciliated by london and new york banks
Architects of this plan knew countries would switch to alternative energy
Take bloom of nuclear rose
Good news is petrodollar is over as of earlier this month, sp hopefully nuclear will stop being artifically price inflated with legislation to nowhere

Why would anyone sane want more nuclear with the competency crisis the West is currently rapidly plunging into? Imagine if the USA, a nation which is currently losing the ability to properly build planes, started really delving into it. Imagine the ensuing environmental chaos that would plague the planet when the diversity hires cause catastrophic meltdowns over and over again, contaminating the world's oceans repeatedly.

Total EROI isn't that good. And they aren't fail-safe. Even without fallout a nuclear accident would destroy tens of billion in that reactor and reduced useful life of reactor with same design.

nuclear being expensive is 100% regulatory and political issue. cut the regulation down and nuclear price will be slashed by 75% or more in 20 years.

Global forex may make up lionshare of daily demand for USD 4+ trillion compared to several hundred billion. But you cant stick fiat, or chinese knicknacks in an M1 abrams. Should probably write an essay on the electronic rocketry supply chain-dollar.
Anyways most oil is not done otc, but in multi year suppy agreements, itll be interesting to see what the saudis do in the next few years.

>daily demand for USD
>implying it's <5 trillion
most of the demand is within the US economy. that's what the currency is actually for, and by far its largest value driver. as long as the US is sufficiently stable as a state (sorry, /pol/ thirdies... it is more than sufficiently stable), that's the primary driver of USD demand externally. the US doesn't even need to be the global hegemon for this to be the case. a "multipolar world" would just have a more diverse set of reserve currencies, provided the non-hegemon "multipoles" all allowed similar foreign supplies of their domestic currencies.
"muh fiat boogeyman" libertarians are fucking retarded.

Daily demand in forex, how you export inflation to have the most stable inflation rate and how you strong arm the world intp your sphere of influence, why you slaid gaddafi im a sewer like a dog and brought slave markets back to libya, why you stole all of saddams gold despite no weapons of mass destruction.
Now you police the seas to support the chinese empire cause your bankers sold you out and cant survive without excuses to print and lock down like covid

Regulations are so fast changing that it is expensive to keep up with all the stuff. There is also political risks: the UK was forced by the UN to conduct discussions with its neighbours for the Hinkley Point C project; demands not made against Iran, North Korea or Russia. That incurred two years of delays.

you're misunderstanding me - i'm not saying our inflation isn't exported. i'm saying the libertarian retards affixing the forex demand of the dollar to petroleum are just fucking wrong. while the petrodollar helped get it globally established, the inertia of USD (and its value derived from the strength of the American consumer base and the stability of the US as a nation) is more than enough to sustain itself at this point. it is a "lingua franca" of currency.
private interest in destabilizing Libya was largely from British oil companies, not central banks or even American oil. they wanted the Blair/Gaddafi deal (or better) from 2004 back. also Gaddafi didn't die in the sewer, he was pulled out before he was killed, and was killed by NTC troops. yes, probably with American-supplied weapons, but the petrodollar isn't why he died.
in fact, it's fairly likely that part of what is destabilizing Libya right now (it... has two governments, as of 2022; they don't seem to be super violent last i checked so this might be among the most peaceful civil wars in history) is AGAIN British oil companies, as they have been trying to get (or have gotten) exclusive drilling rights since ~2022.
>Now you police the seas to support the chinese empire
oh FFS, that's for global trade; it is, almost explicitly, to support the ability for the AMERICAN empire to extract resources from elsewhere (indirectly, via American-owned private enterprise - neoliberals will be neoliberals) through sea trade. i don't necessarily agree with the justifications or the outcomes at home or abroad, but that is why we police the seas.
China is not food secure. it also relies on that global trade network - but that global trade network's primary effect is supporting international corporations, many of which are themselves reliant on American hegemony's willingness to enforce international property rights on the open ocean.
>Just build nuke plants
agreed.

Hudson talked extensively on the relationship of big oil to the central banking system, basically they just print how much profit they want through foreign exchange, (remember how he alsmost got beat up in mexico for trying to explain the system to them) Gaddafis gold back diner interfered with that setup, same with saddams desire to sell in euros. At some point how does one not see central banks, big oil and the MIC as de facto the same entity?
According to pol gaddafi was poopknifed in a sewer, if there was proof of death that would be appreciated
Yes, geographic china is losing food security, but economic china is securing lands and establishing secret police stations and building blimp drone swarm carriers

fuck man, how do you say somethingnlike this and expect people to take you seriously? there's actually video of it. and it was a drainage pipe at a construction site, not an interconnected sewer system.
hudson overestimates the amount of control the central banks have over the private banks' investments; most of their "value" comes from derivatives market fuckery since investment and commercial banking were allowed to mix into a chimeric abomination thanks to free market retards deregulating the financial sector. the oil companies, big tech, big agriculture, big pharma, big insurance, etc. are all just revenue streams to them to help prop up their derivatives bullshit.
Saddam also wasn't due to the petrodollar, but rather the threat to the oil supply directly. that's why the response to Saddam was so international - American big oil isn't the only one, lots of industry requires a steady oil supply. /pol/ thinks alliances - even temporary ones of convenience - are all "dominant central power and subservient nations" because that is the thirdies' and libertarian retards' 'understanding' of interpersonal relationships extrapolated to states (same reason they think national budgeting/debt works like household budgeting/debt).
