Question THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, (WHAT'S LEFT OF IT !!!)

I would like to start this text by attempting to seek out some person from
across the Pond who can explain (or attempt to explain) this suicidal fall of
the once mighty $Dollar.These are very troubling times Economically,does
Bush even have the slightest clue as to what he and his Fiscal advisors are
telling him??.There are now stories doing the rounds in Europe about highly
paid Models/Software designers/I.T. Security designers ETC who are refusing
to accept the currency in payment for services rendered.

Surely should this be allowed to continue then disaster is
waiting around the corner.I know the big-wigs from the U.S.Treasuary ETC
are saying nothing is wrong,and we are not heading for recession.However the
omens do not look to clever.First and foremost there is the "GIGANTIC" U.S.
Defecits,these are that far out of control that maybe they will never be put
right.Going back to the 1980s and the Economic Voodoo which was termed
Reaganomics/ this was a pathetic fiscal philosophy where by the bigger the
gulf got like the "imbalance" of trade defecit,Reagans advisors told us the
faster it would correct it's self ???/ UTTER NONSENSE all of it.This was at time
when a Trillion $ Dollar Deficit was considered out of this world.Bush has ran
up a 12 Trillion deficit (and don't forget folks he is a Fiscal Conservative???).
Should this last stupid comment which Bush calls himself be true,then I would
hate to se a Fiscal Tax and spend Liberal ?!?!?! (may the Gods preserve us)
Phew.

The way this man Governs is quite insane the way Money is
thrown at every single problem (except the real domestic ones like Medicare
and Children's inoculations ETC is a "real" scandal).This man flings money at
Countries,for the slightest sign of so-called loyalty.This money he liberally
gives away is DEBT for which the next two generations of Americans yet to
be born will have tied around their necks,one thing is for sure these coming
people will wonder why the U.S. has to pay China untold $ Billions every
month !!.The last subject in this is the much bandied about new American
currency the Phoenix.This was supposed to cement the bond between the
Countries in the N.A.F.T.A.Community.This has all but vanished from the
scopes of every political and fiscal commentator since about 2004.Does any
-body know what happened to this new currency,did Mexico pull out through
the Border conrtrol thing.Then again did Canada refuse because of the way
the $ Dollar was slipping into weakness ??.
