MOMENTS AGO: President Donald J. Trump signs one executive order and two memoranda, empowering U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin to take the first step toward tax reform and weed out onerous portions of Dodd-Frank, a law implemented in the wake of the financial crisis. http://fxn.ws/2p0bNAs

I do have one question Frank, can you clarify this statement on what it means.

Trump is depending on thousands of US citizens to help build up our economy, our work force, our USD, but “they” (UST/FEDS) are counting on us/citizens to fail
Frank , what do you mean by this? They are counting on us to fail at what?

If I may interject, and I will try and stay as apolitical as possible. There are those who believe in the American people and what they can do, these are on one end of the spectrum.
On the other end are those, some would term them as "elitists", that think that the people have to be provided for by others, the government. And of course there are those that fall between the two extremes.
Our last administration believed that government had to provide for us because we just aren't smart enough to care for ourselves. I will go so far as to say that their goal was to make government the answer for everything, and I have facts to back up my opinion.
There are those in his group that referred to us here as "unwashed masses", "toothless crackheads", and the "people in flyover country". They do not believe in what we can achieve.
Our current administration, although we may not agree with everything he says or does, at least believes in us, the American people. President Trump, while some of his comments are politically motivated, deep down believes not just America, but that AMERICANS can be great again, in fact ARE great.
So to answer your question, the FED (Federal Reserve) and the career people in the State and Treasury Departments fall much more to the "elitist" side of things. They believe we will all be broke within a couple of years anyway, but we are much smarter than that.
As for me, I am not only strong in my Christian Faith, add to it my Viking heritage, and I believe we can achieve what we believe can achieve, once we put a shoulder to it. Many thanks to KTFA and the time they expend for all. My apologies if I have misconstrued in any way what was intended in the original comments.
God Bless, Aloha ke akua, Peace Out, The Prof

I have a much simpler opinion of the meaning “they” (UST/FEDS) are counting on us/citizens to fail
I see this as the simple thought that the masses of the dinar holder has a Lottery Winner mentality.
I heard a statistic quoted at an estate planning seminar [dont have documentation to site the origin] that a SUDDEN MONEY recipient {like a dinarian} will within 78 days spent their new wealth and created a situation that is WORSE than what it was prior to the windfall.
IMO the UST/FEDS would be giddy if we all RUSHED to the bank, exchanged our grubby ol' Iraqi dinar for crisp, clean green USDollars and ran around town like our hair is on fire, spending wildly and kickin' our heels in glee.
Again IMO the dinar we hand to our friendly banker is going to go on down the road to the Federal Reserve and the gvmt will get the honor of holding it for THEIR benefit.
The UST/Fed doesn't want us to be students and think through how to be strategic in our investment. They wish for us to "cash out" at a low rate and get out of this amazing investment lickety split.
But that is just me thinking what Frank might have been saying

Imo. Pretty self explanatory. They dont want anyone added to the elite 1% club. They are counting on the statistics of past lottery winners who are broke in 5 yrs.
They want to keep their foot on the neck of the middle to lower class PERIOD.
YOU/WE have to be smart and NOT make them right ….like all past lottery winners have.
Be smart. Be patient. Live ur life that meats ur needs. Dont buy a 10k sqr ft house when 3k will do just fine.
You/we have been struggling all our lives. Maintain that way of life and live modestly or slightly above.
Make sure u ARE NOT LIVING OFF OF THIS BLESSING. KEEP IT IN THE BANK AND LIVE OFF THE INTEREST PER MONTH.
Im not saying not to pamper yourself. By all means. Do just that. Just be smart about it. Do not buy a car that an oil change will cost u 2000 bucks where just a week ago, prior to being rich, you only paid 40 bucks.
What I did was tell my family about this investment. I said Im not becoming rich to take care of YOU. Buy your own. I am a tough love kind of almost 8 year old.. hahahaha
They are counting on you failing. Imo. This is what Frank meant.
Be smart. Question EVERYTHING.
ASK YOURSELF, WHAT WOULD JESUS DO. YOU WILL ALWAYS DO THE RIGHT THING WHEN ASKING YOURSELF THAT ?.

Family, at some point in time during this study, we have struggled, felt frustrated, angry, confused, doubtful, challenged etc... but in all honesty, that will feel like a cake walk (or cookie walk) when compared to what we about to encounter.
The next challenge will be the most important challenge of your life and you, your family and the generation to come all depend on you and your decisions on how to preserve/protect your blessing going forward.
For me, I first read how people "lost" their fortunes. What mistakes they made, what they invested in/didn't invest it... everything that teaches me how they lost it. This "path" to failure has already been paved and it is so easy to go down, if I were to chose their outcome... to be bankrupt.
Next, I read the "success" stories. Why did their story work? What did they do? How do they live? How did they set up their "structure" to make their $'s work for them? That path has also been paved and at first, seems more challenging to follow.
All I can do is educate myself on both paths, then seek advice from professionals (yes, get 2-3 different opinions) and then, it is up to me to make the decisions. It might not sound like it but this my friends, will be harder to do then to take the easy path of "instant gratification" which = broke in three years.
Please don't fall prey to quick fixes and deals that sound too good to be true.~Hugs, Doodle's

Family I have to let you know that as I-TEAM read our notes from last night a mistake was noticed.....this centers around I-TEAM seeing the 2017 Iraqi budget, yes they did see the full budget but what we have to report from them is that there no rate whatsover in the 2017 budget.
Yes it was formulated and calculated at a specific rate but no rate appears in the budget, just as there is no number showing at the CBI website for the Indicative Rate....both wait on the new rate to be published, a rate that has been calculated for all of the world to accept.
1184 is key to this budget, because at 1184 this 2017 budget will not work, it is an impossible mathematical issue.....their budget awaits contract to finish bringing what the Private Sector needs....and all the money that was committed over this past weekend is playing a key role in all of this as well.
Again, I sincerely apologize for not stating this properly last night and ask for your forgiveness and understanding in what we see as truly happening.
