    I had some college friends from different European countries and they hated everything about the EU, except for the Euro. But European countries are smaller and Europeans travel internationally alot more.

    I just don't see how a North American currency will be sold as beneficial to us Americans. Unless there's some kind of major crisis with the dollar, we just don't need it and won't accept it...

    Look out ahead
    I agree. Besides, there is no way in we can create fixed economies between Canada, us, and Mexico until Mexico reaches our standard of living. The USA and Canada are close enough.

    Still... I value our sovereignty, and will be opposed.

    We could try bringing the USA down to Mexico's standard of living.

    The 10s of $Bs that illegal workers repatriate from wealthy countries to poor foreign countries is seen as a type of direct-to-needy foreign aid where the kleptocrats who run charities and run poor countries can't get their hands on the lucre.

    That appears to be what the free trade people are trying to do. Sending our jobs overseas to cheap labor has been eroding our standard of living. Sure, we get cheap goods, but at the cost of our own average wages. I say it's better for prices to go up, because the return of supply and demand in the labor force will bring wages up to compensate, and then some. This is the major reason I like seeing our dollar fall. Imports and outsourced labor becomes more expensive. Our exports become cheaper to other countries. I say let the dollar fall more and more, or do away with free trade and impose tariffs again.

    The corps don't give a about anybody's standard of living, except the SoL of top executives. Financial stocks dropped $74B, while the financial companies pay now $38B in bonuses.

    Corps aren't charities, they are ruthless profit seekers, everbody and everhting, we make profits..

    Every employee is nothing but just another cost to be minimized, and ideally eliminated. Laying off 10s of 1000s of employees usually get the top management $Ms in bonuses and stock. Cutting employee benefits, underfunding pensions are a top financial objectives.

    The U.S. dollar must be getting precariously closer to collapse if the New World Order crowd feels comfortable enough to start publishing pics of the new North American currency...








    Even more disturbing: Building a North American Community
    Ah yes, here is an oldy but a goody. The big bad Amero.
