Are we headed for a new global economic system?

I think anyone with basic math skills and a logical approach can see that the U.S. dollar is in real trouble - The kind of trouble you just don't pull out of. So, is this just the fall of another empire or could this be even more monumental?

It is pretty safe to assume that the recent economic disaster is of an unparalleled magnitude to anything we have yet experienced. America is a huge country with a lot of forward momentum...and right now that is all we have left. With the current debasing of our dollar we can expect some serious changes in how we used to do business.

History can and often does repeat itself

It would be wise to educate yourself on the Roman empire and how its economic troubles cost them their empire.

So what can we do about it?

I honestly don't know. maybe we shouldn't do anything about it except adapt. Our current monetary system is corrupt and bankrupt to the point of no return. Here is a speech I wrote in college about the Federal Reserve and how our dollars (Federal Reserve Notes) are really interest bearing units of debt. To learn more about our monetary system read this!

So what's next?

Here's a good guess (from my local paper):

Exactly what does this mean? I don't know but I can read and speculate:

A new economic world order

A global economic collapse then a one world global monetary system. Hmmm, so where is this eventually headed?

Ezekiel 7:19 - "They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity."

UPDATE (Sept. 20 2009): There appears to be no end in sight in regards to this talk of a new global economic order. Just today I ran across this article:
