'The Economist 1988: Get ready for "The Phoenix" world currency by 2018.'
The above was the headline on the front cover of the Economist in 1988.
That would constitute a very radical move would it not, but how could The Economist conceivably think it could come about, or are they well informed at a high level.
The financial elite plan things decades ahead.
People are very resistant to radical change especially if it is perceived to be gratuitous or if it is beneficial to special interests groups. The elites use a crisis , or create a crisis,in order to further their political agenda.
During a crisis people will accept change that they would otherwise reject that is why the elites use a crisis to achieve their objectives
Did we aquire the very crisis which would produce the desired result in the shape of the still ongoing financial crisis which commenced five years ago?. All thats required before the financial elite can emerge with their world currency ultimatum is the collapse of the dollar.
As the dollar is the worlds reserve currency when it collapses it will perceived as needing to be replaced wont it- but this time by a world currency.
The EU wanted a common currency for itself because they knew that it would inevitably lead to political union
Similarly the financial elite want a world currency because they know that it will inevitably lead to a world government.
Mayer Amschel Rothschild said - "Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes the laws."
Was this financial crisis deliberately created in order to trigger a series of events which would lead to a world currency and subsequently a world government? - the new world order........but ruled of course by the financial elite/the international bankers.
David Rockefeller is quoted as saying-
"We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march toward a world government. the supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries."
Many thanks for pointing out a 25 year old story which turned out to be incorrect.
While on the subject I would like to point out that Freddie Starr did not eat any hamsters.
Are there any other old stories which time has not been kind to.

Good point MW although zero chance of World currency by 2018, with all this food scare, it is possible that Starr has eaten these rodents in his spag bol.

Its not beyond the realms of possibility that it will happen.
The present financial system is terminal its just a case of when it dies.
The euro will almost certainly go pop in the next few years quite possible the dollar will lose it status as the world's reserve currency and then it will be a brave new world.
Step forward a global currency.

It takes 30 years to decide where to build an airport, railway line or nuclear dumping site.
MW - are you for real.A global currency in 5 years - LOL muppet. It takes 30 years to decide where to build an airport, railway line or nuclear dumping site.
your presuming that the ground work hasn't been done behind the scenes.
If the present system goes pop which it very easily could then something will have to replace it.

Not sure wacko, is it because you are a bit dense?
Come on wacko, great play in digging up a 25 year old story which has not happened.
Maybe you could provide a link to the 11th century article about the trip to find the edge of the flat Earth.

This is not any old headline ,this is a headline in a prestigious magazine and a forecast that looked very unlikely at the time
The conditions for a world currency did not exist in 1988 and continued not to exist until 2008 when the current and ongoing crisis struck, that crisis will have to get much worse before nations will accept a world currency.
They did very well to effectively forecast the 2008 financial crisis- unless they knew something.
I suspect they are a bit behind schedule, so it might happen a little later.
Nations will not accept a world currency in normal circumstances, so the 'power elite' have to engineer a crisis of such severity that they will have no alternative.
We are already in that crisis.
