Russian President Dmitry Medvedev illustrated his call for a supranational currency to replace the dollar by pulling from his pocket a sample coin of a “united future world currency.”
“Here it is,” Medvedev told reporters today in L’Aquila, Italy, after a summit of the Group of Eight nations. “You can see it and touch it.”
The coin, which bears the words “unity in diversity,” was minted in Belgium and presented to the heads of G-8 delegations, Medvedev said.
The question of a supranational currency “concerns everyone now, even the mints,” Medvedev said. The test coin “means they’re getting ready. I think it’s a good sign that we understand how interdependent we are.”
Medvedev has repeatedly called for creating a mix of regional reserve currencies as part of the drive to address the global financial crisis, while questioning the U.S. dollar’s future as a global reserve currency. Russia’s proposals for the G-20 meeting in London in April included the creation of a supranational currency.

I’ll take several million of those coins. Make me rich and I don’t care who runs this world. Leave me poor, and I’ll hold you down and rape your mouth…figuratively speaking, of course. Maye I’ll just kidnap your daughters and extort a million of those coins from you.
Just be careful with the poor, you rich motherfuckers. They might just storm the Bastille again.
Remember that. You can take our guns. We can still spray easy-off oven cleaner in your eyeballs. You keep screwing the poor, and Jesus keeps making us promises. Both of you are full of shit. You Jews killed Jesus. Why would he come back? To see a bunch of homosexual Jews gouging everyone for five million per cent interest, while turning our white children queer?
Why do orthodox Jews have long beards?
..To break the swing of German testicles!
Blessed are the meek. They just took another shaft in their ass.
