this is the canary dying in the coal mine ... the move to the euro and away from the dollar will have huge negative consequences for our nation.

the silver thread is that our country will have to learn to live within our means once again ... the next generation, possibly yours reb, will be the one that suffers most of the coming hardship

how many American dollars are tied up in their banks and in their companies?

maybe we can ask Greenspan how this will hurt our economyof course we'll have to wait until he's selling another book.

Other countries will not follow a trend set by Venezuela. And them changing to the Euro means jack to us. If other countries leave that will be a different story, but they won't leave because Venezuela did. And there are a lot of central banks in Asia that peg their currencies to the dollar that will prevent a crisis, at least in the near future. Asia's economies are built around US appetite for their goods. If the dollar falls and Asian goods become more expensive Americans begin going back to US goods. So no, I'm not worried. Not now anyway.

wonder wehat happens when Helicopter Ben has to exhange all those returning foreign held dollars for something?

BTW, other countries are quietly dumping their US treasury bonds.

Countries will find other markets to sell their goods to.

Speaking of worthless crap, you do live in Ireland, don't you?

Because billions and billions of dollars in sales can be easily replaced. Get back to me when you take an economics course.
