the worse the world economy gets the better the dollar will fair. LOL. but it's not really good for us b/c of the fact that american companies have benefited from a weaker dollar. but on another note, the euro has been losing ground... (thank the deity above) that is one currency that is highly overvalued (apparently liquidity is the foundation of EU's wealth and lack of it has an adverse effect on its economy). and as an extension of the op comments, Canadianfags are your travel plans compromised now that the canadian dollar has lost parity with the real dollar? (eurofags i will ask you this same question in about three months, britfags i have no quarrel with you)
