For years I have been pointing out during my charlas at the Diplomatic Academy of Chile, to the corner stone of the US hegemony: the US dollar being the sole universal reference currency. This hegemony was based on the control of world oil through a subtile combination of military might backing an unquestionable diplomacy.
