We are so fucked.
This is kind of alarmist. At the moment we are actually a little better against the pound right now than we were a few weeks ago. So what if some private enterprises in Amsterdam won't accept the dollar? I don't necessarily have to accept them either, no one is forcing me to. Read someone at the IMF saying they believe the Euro is overvalued recently. It's all relative. I am concerned that we have the Fed pumping up our money supply unchecked and without M3 stats we can't really tell the extent, but the Amsterdam thing doesn't really phase me.
