Dollar dying, gold rising, US Economy on brink?

[Fred Allen Burge]

I've seen some stuff posted around lately that's got me pretty concerned about the good 'ol US dollar. Countries beginning to buy oil with gold instead of dollars in particular. Apparently any time that begins to happen we invade that country on false pretenses (WMDs?), start a war and take over to keep the dollar strong, ie Iraq and upcoming - Iran?.

What are your thoughts, time to get rid of any cash and convert it into hard assets (gold, silver, guns and other tools) before the dollar tanks and takes our savings account down with it? Are we really on the precipice of a national or global reset?
