If the devaluation continues, U.S. may become a semi-cheap outsourcing country ... already seen some discussion on GFY about this.

On an aside, the U.S. certainly seems to be more and more of a 2nd world country compared to elsewhere in regards to standard of living and human rights.

My question is how low would the dollar have to go to start global panic? ... seems to me that as long as others keep buying U.S. debt in bulk, these currency drops will be temporary; they have been before. The alternative is far worse - not just for U.S., but for all those who borrowed large amounts, such as as China.

With that said, the day oil and other major commodities are denominated in Euros, etc that's likely the day people will hit the panic button and all hell will break loose - to digress a bit, some speculate one of the primary reasons for the U.S. staying in Iraq and cooperating with Saudi Arabia is to strongly discourage oil producers switching from dollars.

Yeah, the standard of living in the US is horrible. Not sure about you, but the streets outside my house are paved, and I have an over active fire department and police department who run up and down the streets every time someone gets hurt.

Human rights? Other than the fact that we kill those who kill others.... I can still say what I want to without being sent off prison.

Yes, infrastructure is much better than most places, but what good is that when multiple people in a household are having to work 2 and even 3 jobs just to get by.

Don't tase me bro!

Yes, freedom of speech is alive and well for those with the funds to buy it - but for the majority, it's keep one's mouth shut under penality of arrest - heck at many public events where people used to be able to speak out freely, they are now relegated to a small caged "free speech zone" tucked away in some far flung, unseen place.

Lol, which century do you live man. Streets are paved pretty much anywhere in the world except Africa!

LOL!!!

Don't get me wrong, I lived in the US 2 times before (1 time in Raliegh North Carolina for almost 2 years when I was a kid, and 1 time in Atlanta for just over 6 months). I love the US, but there are a lot of countries out there are way more advanced then the US.

Fuck bush hard.

IllTestYourGirls 10-25-2007 02:02 PM

its easy vote in Ron Paul. No more wars, no more debt, no more borrowing. Dollar will rocket, even if we go back to the gold standard. No other candidate on either side will end these wars in the next term (4 years)

$ or € could both be in the toilet if this credit crunch continues.
We could all be using Yen or the RNB from China

stillsexy 10-26-2007 12:54 PM

US$ will never crash as it's a universal currency unless there is a WW3...

This comment hits the nail on the head. It's all about the ebb and flow. Pure economics. A few years ago it was incredibly cheap to go to England...and people from the US went there in droves. Now the tables have turned and it is the other way around. This is how economics works...nothing is ever stable. When people see that US products are cheap, they will buy them...driving up the price...and then things change again.

There is nothing at all to worry about...the only "constant" is "change".

the alchemist 10-26-2007 01:05 PM

Yes, yes it does :(
