Low value on $ is good for U.S.

[blackmonsters]

A cheap dollar will be good news for the tourism industry.
Hawaii will blow up with Aussies, New Zealanders, Japanese...etc if they can buy more here than at home. A dollar is still a fucking dollar to me no matter what foreigners pay for it!!!

US export products will become cheaper and more affordable to other countries and this will help reduce the trade defecit!

Low interest rates are great for all except the fucking rich that's trying to live off their interest. More home and auto loans for the middle class equals more tax revenue for the states!!

Yeah, US resident will find it hard to buy if they become a tourist in other countries, but who the fuck is going some where now anyway so they can get kidnapped.

Low dollars means sweat shops can't pay as much anymore so jobs will come back to US; punching a hole in outsourcing by US corporations.

Low dollar is good news right now!!

[shima]

Right.
Also causes the inflation rate to go higher, because US doesn't produce Oil, but depends on it as VERY MUCH.
Transportation starts to cost more = therefore goods start to cost more. Dollar is loosing its weight in the International trade.
International trade switches to EUR, and all the contries that you send printed dollar bills to (Financial Aid) are going to send them all right back.
Then what happens?

End of days god damn it..

I'm not the one who likes the weak USD.

[detoxed]

Well what the hell, why didnt we do this sooner

[th3g4me]

True the only price difference I have seen in the last few years is that of oil / gas, and that is not because of our dollar value droping. Gas and oil are going up for every one, and cost more in some places than it does here.

[the Shemp]

ya, but what about the price of Porshes?

Better change your sig from $3/HR to $8/HR so your slave labor in Malaysia can trade the dollars in for a bag of rice.
Or you can stop dealing with them and pay an American $7/HR.


Hmmmm....more jobs comming home?

[Jace]

yeah, the only difference I see is the price of oil

everything else is going down....shit, lcd monitors are down almost $100 from 3 months ago...hehe

i dont know bro, the USA is out sourcing a lot of jobs... you will be paying a premium price when those goods are imported back to the states.

No. Countries like Japan will have to cut their prices to fit the US dollars or be stuck with billions of dollars of undeliverable goods.
Our dollar may get weak but Mexico is still not going to be able to buy these goods and replace us in trade with Japan.

Outsourcing thrives on the US dollar...we pay them $3 which equals $5 of their money; but when the $3 is only worth $2 of their money the workers quit and take local jobs that pay the equivalent of $2.95. Add in the extra cost of overseas biz like shipping and raising the outsourced pay becomes not worth it so the job comes back home.

what jobs are coming back home? the US dollar has been dropping for over a year. the huge US deficit is causing the dollar to weaken...capital is fluid, it will be sent where the best return is..and right now its being sent out of the US..

Foreign investors are less willing to hold US bonds and finance the incredible debt in the US

A low US Dollar can fuck with the prices of bonds and lead to rising longer-term interest rates.

Fucking good! Most US stocks are inflated beyond reason anyway making dividends worthless as they only pay .01 cent on a $50 stock. Selling your stock to make money is bullshit; your profit should come from dividends so you can continue to make money without constant liquidation with broker fees that eat your profit.

Americans will finaly be able to afford some decent shares when this happens and they will buy like crazy knowing that the dividend is now proportional to the price!

The companines selling stock now are just holding on to this capitol and collecting interest since the money raised through selling shares far exceded their operational needs. They will not be hurt by falling prices of their stock!

Decreased confidence in the American economy by foreign markets makes it much more difficult for American companies to raise the capital they need, which has an even worse effect on the US economy.

[BRISK]

A low US Dollar tends to keep American exporters from making their businesses more efficient to compete with foreign companies, and when the dollar rises again, they can't compete anymore and layoffs occur.

Read my post again where I state that companies have too much fucking money in reseve already. They are raising far more money than they need through inflated stock and then reporting the interest from the stock money as profit which makes the stock go up in price further. This is bullshit and this is why Enron execs are in jail!

I actually wish you were right in some cases though.
Like Walmart... I wish they could not raise money to expand because they don't pay employees shit...they got busted for hiring illegal imigrants and they steal biz from small locally owned biz that pays employees more. The mega franchise is making americans poor and putting billions in the hands of a small select group of people.

Low dollars means a US VCR in another country cost less money for the foreign people than their own VCR; therefore they buy a US VCR thus increasing our exports to them and reducing our trade deficit.


No wonder Bush was re-elected; this country is full of economic and foreign policy idiots.

The value of the dollar in another country means fucking nothing to the average american who never even gets out of his own city.

You have no idea how dumb this reply makes you look

1. I never said a low US dollar doesn't increase US exports. I said it tends to make US businesses less efficient.

2. The value of the dollar has effects on every American whether they leave their city or not, because the value of the dollar has an effect on the entire US economy, and that effect is not always positive.

3. There is MUCH MORE at stake than people in Europe being able to buy your porn for less.

With a low dollar, the higher cost of imports has an inflationary effect. Higher inflation causes the Federal Reserve to increase interest rates.

Yea, no wonder Bush was re-elected, the average person is just plain stupid, and you take the cake. First off with your idiotic analogy the parts to make that VCR came from a foreign country and that US VCR ends up costing more to produce. Secondly, with a weak dollar it takes more dollars to purchase oil, which effects everything from travel to higher prices for everything. Everything has to be transported, from the parts to manufacture to shipping the product to retail outlets. If you really believe the bullshit you post then take a look at Mexico, see how the strength of their currency has helped them.

It works like this:

My signup form says $29.99 so I get $29.99 no mater who signs up. People in UK pay less for the dollar but I still get $29.99 from them and this works because of the following:

1. The 7-11 hot dogs I live off will still be $1.29(chili included).
2. The budwiser at the bar will still be $3.00.
3. Da hoe on da conna will still charge me $50 for the same blowjob.
4. My bitch will still get the $1.99 happy meal when we go out.
5. And the begging motherfuckers on the street still aint getting a fucking dime outta me.

This equals more money for me when sales increase.

It's obvious that you live in a very simplistic world and are unaware of the greater effects of a falling US Dollar. There are some EXTREMELY negative consequences. There is more to life than $1.29 hot dogs at 7-11.

The reason americans flock to Mexico on spring break is beacause of week Mexican currency. Mexico aint got shit to sell us except taquilla so if the curreny rose they would be broker than ever when spring break went to Texas instead.
Mexico's devalued currency is the only thing that keeps american dollars flowing in. So yeah it help to keep them from starving completely.

You are shallow to only see a VCR as the example. I should have said wigets for you dumbasses who cannot get beyond your 9th grade economics book.

The stuff you are advocating is the same shit I've heard for 43 years of my life. And during these 43 yrs the ghetto has grown 10 times bigger and the homeless are so numerous as to not be able to be counted...more jobs are overseas...less percentage of people can buy homes etc.... is it going to take another 43 years before folks admit that this fucking old philisophy of biz is not working and it's all based on the ideas of a few popular people who just maybe were lucky?

Low dollars = more people with money comming to america to spend it ...more people outside of america buying our goods...and thus creating more jobs; and isn't this what our prez keeps promising to do when he says he will reduce the trade deficit and reduce unemployment and welfare?

The "big" dollar thing is only for the fucking rich who are trying to buy up everything abroad. You aint one of them so put your brain where you money is.

[sacX]

The US is dependent on foreigners.
The massive budget/trades deficits are funded by foreigners buying US bonds. As the USD loses value foreigners think "WTF am I holding this piece of shit currency"

To attract more foreign cash, the federal reserve has to raise interest rates and as a consequence slow the economy.
