I have been thinking about the sudden change of heart of the Russian, Chinese, Brazilian finance ministers.

I'm thinking that they didn't just decide to become the PR mouth pieces for the US dollar.

My guess is that with the TIC date released today the US knew that they were up against the wall as far as financing our debt.

I'm thinking that the countries in question demanded and received something from the US at the G* meeting in return for todays public display.

What it is we may never know...but one thing is certain. The US citizen just got screwed again.
