This Is Your Money. This Is Your Money On Bush.

The American dollar is now even with the Canadian dollar. No offense to our friends to the north, but that is pathetic. Paul Krugman describes this as a “Wile E. Coyote” moment.

    And the conservatives won’t rest until it’s worth less than the Yen.

    “Their dollar is also lot cooler than ours.”

    Damn straight. We have a $1 coin with a bird on it and a two-colour $2 coin.

    On a side note, I work for an American company and get paid in American. Today, for the first time ever, I got less in Canadian than the check was worth in American. When I started four years ago, the exchange rate was close to 40%, now its more than 2% the other way.

    At this rate, we could see the Euro move past $1.50, which would encourage countries to switch to that currency as their reserve. And that would kill the United States.

    If socialism is so bad, why is their currency kicking our currency’s ass?
    A friend of mine recommended me to buy Euros around the time Bush stole office, back when they were worth about .80 cents. Now that they are worth $1.40, I can kick myself for not doing it.
    Damned socialists!
