#1 snicker...first they were crowing about the decline of the dollar. Now they are starting to whine about it. Maybe...just maybe..one day they will realize that markets don't conform to politics, politics conform to markets.

#2 I was flamed on another site a few months ago explaining how the low dollar will hurt Europe and help the US. To those folks I give a Nelson Muntz "HA, HA". This is entry level college economic theory. If this poor, dumb, state-university-edjicated, redneck can see this WTF are they teaching in the Ivy League?

#4 Oh, yeah, and if we can get a handle on tort reform and cut corp. taxes, China and India will have a real run for everyone's money.

#5 A2U, if tort reform is put in place, the economic impact of EPA regulations is controlled and workman's compensation fraud is curtailed then it would be truly fun to inact whatever dollar strengthening measures the G-7 wants. The economic result wouldn't change, because growth would be stoked by the lowering of the costof business.
