Excellent, and this is the way to go, BRIC needs to take a lead as an economic body, there is no following to be done, it is time to focus the world on a multipolar road ahead, for the benefit of all the world's people. The Obama circus is fine, they can just keep juggling and fire-eating, it is good entertainment, whilst BRIC and the rest of the world, move on and build a sound diplomatic and economic trading structure to refocus the world away from a western dictat. The US, in the end will also benefit from it, as it will be a return to core original American peoples values, rather than institutional USA. It will also create new markets, for the US to openly and fairly compete in, rather than to control through military blackmail and threats. So like all good teams, just keep playing the way we are, be aware of what others are doing, but don't just watch and follow, play your own game. This is what BRIC,SCO and others need to do. Not in an aggressive polical way, but going back to sound economic and normal friendly diplomatic basis. It is time to create world organs, that are not inspired by the empire of US self interest, that currently dominate all western created institutions. Common interests need to become the order of the day, with muticultural diversity, competition and tolerence being the guiding principles. Central control never works, be it by the US or anyone else, this is a time proven fact.

Well said, Count Cash! - But paying money into the IMF may prove ill-advised in the long term, although diplomatically necessary at present. The world is poised between plunder and cooperation. The dominant American-European powers continue plundering in their long-established tradition of merciless imperialism. Arms production is basic to this sordid process and continual war essential to stimulate and grow their economies. The hope is that BRIC, with other countries which may wish to join, offers new forms of cooperation. China's activities in some African countries, by tying trade to cooperative efforts to build a regional or national economy, may offer some examples of a New Way, enhancing life - not threatening and destroying it. As Count Cash says: "Multicultural diversity, competition and tolerance being the guiding principles", cooperation should replace threat, war and and murderous plunder.
