    Possibly the emminent bankruptcy of the federal government is part of the plan to introduce the Amero as the new currency.

        maybe not the economy... but it was the Bush administration's goal from the get go to devalue the dollar......

        5 billion invested in currency futures when bush took office.. around the first of this year.. was worth a staggering 160 trillion..... could have paid for the war.....

        and the moneys made trading currency is NOT TAXABLE or traceable...

        As a Canadian, I am very much completely against the Amero. I will not accept my currency being tied to a country that has a proven track record of imprudent borrowing and constant inflation of the money supply because they refuse to make the difficult decision and raise taxes.

        If they try, there will be protests. I will happily be a protester.

          I have got to wonder why the recent obsession with the accumulation of unprecedented amount of wealth? Why now? What is on the horizon that requires investors to have historical gains for the few? Is it a fear of Lack? Or is it a conquering obsession? Or is there something far more sinister in the works? Asteroid? Migration to Mars? What!?! It's like we never left the 80's! Only the bad hair is gone!

            Don't worry mark, I don't think it's a recent obsession. Greed is one of the only constants.
