When are they going to put the secretary of the Treasury in there? Don't they do basically the same thing with Social Security?

I wonder if they do the ''slice the garlic with the razorblade ''trick like they did in GOODFELLAS?

@joel2ksweet THINGS ARE NOT AS BAD AS U THINK. BUT IF U FEEL SO STRONGLY ABOUT IT U SHOULD PUT UR MONEY WHERE U MOUTH IS. I ALREADY KNOW THAT WE ARE GONNA DO GOOD OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS AND IM WILLING TO BET ON IT.

@joel2ksweet THEY DO ACCEPT DOLLARS IN MEXICO U CAN CHANGE UR DOLLARS ANYWHERE, AT ANY BANK. WHAT U CANNOT DO IS USE DOLLARS FOR OTHER BANK TRANSACTIONS. WHICH IS NORMAL. IVE TRAVELED THE WORLD AND HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A COUNTRY WHERE U CAN USE DOLLARS AT A BANK... EXCEPT FOR LAOS WHERE THEY USE 3 CURRENCIES.

@joel2ksweet PPL HAVE TO USE THE DOLLAR. SURE THERE MIGHT BE LESS PEOPLE USING IT. BUT THERE IS NO CHOICE OTHER THAN THE DOLLAR RIGHT NOW. AND MOST DEVELOPED NATIONS KNOW THAT IF EVERYONE STOPS USING THE DOLLAR THAT IT WILL BE BAD FOR OUR ECONOMY. AND WHATEVER IS BAD FOR OUR ECONOMY IS BAD FOR THEIR ECONOMY TOO. THE WHOLE WORLD'S ECONOMY IS TIED TO OURS. SO IF WE GO DOWN THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD WILL GO DOWN WITH US AND THAT IS A FACT THAT IS WELL KNOWN.

WE ARE NUMBER 32 ON ONE LIST AND NUMBER 20-SOMETHING ON ANOTHER LIST. ALL OF EUROPE AND JAPAN IS DEEPER IN DEBT THAN WE ARE.

@ITZDAMOBB did you know they currently wont accept us dollars in banks in mexico? could you imagine that 10 years ago? the us has been the worlds largest debtor since around the end of the 70's and while it has grown so has its debt because in the past when the us needed to pay its debts they would simply print more money and this is what they have been doing for the last couple of years now, but now its coming to an end as the rest of the world is basically not gonna use the dollar which will

@ITZDAMOBB the reserves are an illusion? is that the best you have? the fact you went to business school says alot. yes the economy goes in cycles anyone with the slightest bit of common sense understands that, but also understand that while it is a cycle it is a constantly changing cycle and when it changes it benefits some and hurts others. when the rest of the world stops using the dollar as its reserve currency which is already happening it will mean a dramatic shift in the economic climate
