Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin accused the United States Monday of living beyond its means "like a parasite" on the global economy and said dollar dominance was a threat to the financial markets.
"They are living beyond their means and shifting a part of the weight of their problems to the world economy," Putin told the pro-Kremlin youth group Nashi while touring its lakeside summer camp some five hours drive north of Moscow.
"They are living like parasites off the global economy and their monopoly of the dollar," Putin said at the open-air meeting with admiring young Russians in what looked like early campaigning before parliamentary and presidential polls.
Putin forgets that the USSR was a parasite when it defaulted on its world debt. Putin is going to run for President of Russia again so he wants to be relevant. He's Obama's brutha from anotha mutha.

Doesn't take away from the relevance of his point though, does it?

We get it, you are ethnocentric and hate everyone other than people who believe the exact same as you.

Gold-backed currency is a bad idea. A fiat currency need not be bad
Who said anything about gold? Although any commodity or anything of any value at all is better than fiat. Fiat NEED not be bad, but history shows that it always IS bad in the long run. It just allows whoever controls the production of the counterfeit garbage to rob the people indirectly is all.
