@Numpty,
I have heard more than one or two things about the "amero", will it still be fiat money controlled by the federal reserve? and what happens to the hard earned dollars in our pockets and bank accounts? I can't see them trading on a 1:1 ratio so the people DON'T get screwed just this once.
and of course bush and his administration know stuff they don't, can't or won't tell us, however I believe that something as important as our currency changing should be put to a vote with plenty of forknowlege to the American people so we can invest confidently and not lose our a$$e$, ahem a$$et$.
