I have hope for SR because I feel that a collapse of the US government will come before the DEA can even make a move on it. And when the US government does collapse under its own weight I will exclaim, "Good riddance!"Not gonna happen. Oil is traded almost entirely in US dollars. for any nation to purchase oil they must purchase the greenback first. This has and will continue to prop up the US economy for a while.Interesting facts:1) Saddam Hussein declared he would accept other currencies (like the Euro) not long before the 2003 war began.2) Hugo Chavez declared Venezuela would accept other currencies not long before the coup that booted him out of power. He's back in power now as the result of the counter-coup. The first coup appeared to follow the standard CIA playbook for that sort of thing. Funny that.
