Will the "killing" of the dollar mirror the final plague of Egypt - the "killing" of the firstborn? Although this video was posted a year ago, today we actually see Russia and China publicly colluding to destroy the dollar. How much time is left??? Wherever you are when it happens, that's where you'll be stuck. Are you where you want to be in the final analysis???
I've always personally thought that it would be the other way around - that the failing of the economy would be the FIRST major blow to America... with more to follow. The first plague Hashem brought against the Egypt was against the Nile, which they worshiped as one of their prime deities. Rashi explains that when Hashem wages war on a nation, He first attacks their god, and then subsequently attacks the nation itself. America is the main capitalist nation in the world and prints "In God we trust" on their money - because the money is their god. While America (and the world) have been suffering some strange occurrences these past few years, they are arguably still within the realm of nature. If the dollar fails perhaps Hashem will start to unleash things that are truly supernatural. Indeed Chazal say that if there were great miracles at yetziat Mitzraim which was a temporary geula, kal v'chomer there should be greater miracles at the final geula.
