Thieves have ripped off our Nation repeatedly, stolen our currency, affected our national economy and inflated the trade balance between the United States and many other nations.  Counterfeiting a Nation's currency is considered an act of war according to many international agreements.  North Korea, in addition to flaunting its nuclear testing in the face of the United States and almost every other nation on earth, has been counterfeiting our One Hundred dollar bills for many years, in fact, their presses are so good, their paper and colors so accurate, some runs are actually equal in quality than that produced by our own US Treasury Department.  The North Koreans sell these bogus bills to other nations such as China,Iraq and other rogue groups such as Hezbollah and Hamas so when these bogus bills get back to the US; they rob our domestic economy of millions of dollars.  Officially our Government has issued sanctions against North Korean companies who are suspected of passing these counterfeits and filed complaints against the regime.

            Hezbollah, the Islamofacists in Lebanon, have been paying reconstruction money, given to Lebanese residents whose houses were destroyed, with counterfeit U S C-notes.  You may have seen the printing plates in news videos of the U S bombing of their headquarters buildings.  It doesn't take much imagination to think they have been paying the families of the homicide bombers with our cash, since the paper money of the Mid-East has little value but the US cash holds its value.  So, we're paying for the reconstruction of Lebanon, paying the families of bombers who are actively fighting our military by blowing themselves up.  This is our tax dollars at work!

            The tri-border area of South America, bounded by the countries of Argentina,Brazil, and Paraguay, is an area of lawlessness, drug trafficking, illicit trade in every commodity and the availability and bulk sale of counterfeit U S Currency, chiefly in One-hundred dollar bills.  Purchases of US Dollars are made by terrorists, drug lords, those active in the sale of counterfeit pharmaceuticals and pirated CD's and DVD's.  Now we are financing the war on our border, the illicit drug trade and pirating of US products also. 

            It's time to demand our Congress and Administration put a stop to these raids on our economy.  If they want dollars, we can sell them products and bring our balance of trade into a manageable range, instead of having counterfeit bills dragging down our economy, affecting each of us.

 

I'm Vance, and I'm thinking right!
