#4 I will worry about the value of the dollar the day that the cocaine cartels in South America start refusing to take it in exchange for their drugs. There is a good reason why every mafia, drug smuggler, and contraband smuggler in the world wants the dollar as payment : world-wide acceptance at face value. |
