“Thus, it should be understood that when pro-US figures use the term, 'rules-based international order,' they are not referring to anything analogous to the rule of law. Quite the opposite, they are using Orwellian language to describe a system in which essentially no rules can be established and/or observed, given that the dominant state has the prerogative to violate and/or rewrite “rules” at its whim.” Aaron Good, American Exception
"But, once again, I'll get on my soapbox and shout from the top of my lungs that buying U.S. Treasuries is a Ponzi scheme that will all come crashing down on you when the Fed removes their stimulus. Sure it won't be now, or in the next 6 months, but this Treasury Bubble will pop one day, and when it does, the mass exodus to the exit door will be so jammed, that everyone will get hurt."
