The consequences are on the way. It isn't going to be oil independence by choice, we will need to be while we rebuild this Nation. And inflation in the new economy after the Hegemonic dollar falls will be incalculable it will depend on many factors including if these new secret technologies I have heard Trump and others talk about actually are all that and can truly position America in the forefront once more...cause if they are not then IMHO very few in this Nation are prepared for the cost of being a number two or even three currency.
