Dollar vs. Euro

Dollar keeps dropping, when is it gonna stop?
A lot of non-US webmasters are affected by this big time

cheap dollar may not be all that bad... cheaper US exports. Plus, if the Iraq occupation gets more expensive or keeps dragging, expect the dollar to tank even further.

I got a feeling it will start rising quite soon - That is if usa hike up interest rates like they should have last time round -

I think this present administration is hell bent on exports to get the balance down

EU won't sit still watching this BS. They already said that. If that moron doesn't wise up the bubble is gonna burst.

All non-US webmasters are paying taxes to US so their folks don't feel a thing.

What is funny is that this shit in Iraq won't end and in order to get the currency back straight the war has to end. If it doesn't end then US won't have anywhere else to export anymore and it won't be importing either because no one is insane enough to sell anything to US with so weak dollar. So the solution is to pack the bags in Iraq (end up losing that war) and get the currency back to normal before elections. But then there's no victory in Iraq! Whatever Bush does it's gonna kill him. Doomed already when he took the office. Can't blaim him really - he's an idiot.

It hurts at times. Actually it hurts BIGTIME. I remember the good old days of $1.62 on the USD to CDN. Now THAT was a nice exchange. Now we're at less than $1.29. That HURTS.

I wish I could do that, but I rely on my monthly income to survive. Or else I would do the exact same thing.

I remember in '95 the dollar was fl 1.50 (Dutch), which equals to around 0.70 euro if I'm correct. I think it could very well drop to .70 again before it goes up.
