The one truth in the original post is that NATO is dead.  And that's a good thing. Other than that it's nonsense. Nobody is buying the Yen out of fear.

 

So what is the new safe haven currency? Buy Bitcoin.

Bitcoin, an imaginary currency backed by nothing but BS.

The sheeple love it though, till they won't.

The sheeple are the ones with no bitcoin, watching their savings eroded by inflation.

 

old folk dont need to pay attention, but are fools to give that advice to their children

Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme. Only fools and members of the Cult of the Orange Buffoon think it's a good thing.

Youve been wrong with all youve said so far. Dont know how you think you still have dignity left for your opinions

Getting nervous about the spigots being turned off? Scared  to grow a pair and face Vlad by yourselves?

 

Wonder how the businesses in Mannheim are going to feel when that last plane takes off.

Exactly as the businesses in all the other one time garrison towns throughout what was once West Germany felt. They will shrug and get on with things. The "girlie bars" and dodgy second hand car lots will take a hit, but everyone else will cope.

Im to lazy to update my research. Tell the folks working in the Dry Cleaners to get a new job. 

 

Dude, are you guys trying to make yourselves feel better? You guys sound like the toddler reciting over and over "there arent any monsters under the bed" like a protective mantra. Hey the USA is leaving you defenseless and broke, naw we will be OK, we will be OK, we will be OK, its nothing, we dont need you, we will be OK.

 

OK then. You get no argument from me. You will be OK. Say bye to us. We will send you a bill.

Yen was oversold. Just normal buying.

Thinking back to my years in West Germany, the only things I ever had dry cleaned was my No2 dress ( brown drinking suit with the brass buttons) and my mess kit - so 6 visits a year? Combat Kit was laundered by the system, and normal working dress was done in a washing machine.

 

Anyway truth be told the garrisons had very little to do with the local economy, The British and Dutch did the bulk of their shopping in their respective NAAFIs, the Americans in their PX. The Dutch, Belgians and French had very little money to spend as they were conscripts. The Americans were payed in Dollars, and their sprawling bases were renowned for having every US "shopping facility" one could need "on base".

 

The US bases in Europe have not existed to defend Europe for decades; rather they, and the couple of airbases in the UK, exist as logistical establishments, forward bases and medical facilities to support their (the US's) various foreign interventions in the Near and Middle East. Back in the "Cold War" when fighting troops were maintained in West Germany a significant part of the costs were met by the. West German government. Complaints about our presence were usually settled by the argument " uns oder die Russkis"!
