Yeah, the US is just going to up and drop the world's most prominent brand for something that no one's ever heard of. In many nations where not a lick of English is spoken, "American dollar" will still get you what you want.
I'll vote for "move to chat"
Good post BTW
I used to think that this was tin foil hat stuff but ever since the election and the Bush Administration's steadfast refusal to do anything at all to secure our borders I've been rethinking my position. The 700 mile border fence...the unfunded and now never to be funded border fence...was nothing more than a sop to the masses.
The "Amero" would be equivalent of the American dollar, and the two other currencies would be exchanged at the rate in which they are then traded for the U.S. dollar. In other words, at the outset, the wealth of all three countries would be unchanged, and the power to manage the currency would be roughly proportional to the existing wealth. The three governments’ remain zealous defenders of an aging conception of sovereignty whereas the people seem ready to entertain new approaches.
Defining A North American Community
North Americans are ready for a new relationship. Studies over the past 20 years have shown a convergence of values, on personal and family issues as well as on public policy. An October 2003 poll taken in all three countries by Ekos, a Canadian firm, found that a clear majority believes that a North American economic union will be established in the next ten years. The same survey found an overwhelming majority in favor of more integrated North American policies on the environment, transportation, and defense and a more modest majority in favor of common energy and banking policies. And 75 percent of people in the United States and Canada, and two-thirds of Mexicans, support the development of a North American security perimeter. The U.S., Mexican, and Canadian governments remain zealous defenders of an outdated conception of sovereignty even though their citizens are ready for a new approach. Each nation’s leadership has stressed differences rather than common interests. North America needs leaders who can articulate and pursue a broader vision.
world-NUT-daily spreading their paranoia again...
"the Amero "is the proposed new currency for the North American Community which is being developed right now between Canada, the U.S. and Mexico.""
... and the American people are the last to know about it.
Or perhaps it's yet another piece in the puzzle of the desovereignization of America.
Cool! We can issue it pre-inflated at 1000 Ameros per Euro and save the politicians time.
It'd just be another piece of paper with pretty pictures and scribbles on it.
LOL
Since the Euro has proven to be an unmitigated disaster, they will undoubtedly come up with endless re-inventions of the concept to justify the foolishness. The public will never accept it, so it will have to be done with bureaucratic subterfuge.
The bottom line is that these internationalists suffer a delusion similar to the communists. That is, communists *believed* in communism as a faith, despite any evidence to the contrary. The internationalists are likewise convinced, as a matter of faith, that the future of the world lies in internationalism.
It took 70 years of brutal, punishing examples showing that no element of communism ever works; yet even at the bitter end, many still were true believers. They knew in their heart of hearts that if just a little more resources were given to the system; or, if outsiders would just stop sabotaging it, then it would work.
Europe, to no great surprise, is starting its long, inexorable slide to becoming again like the Holy Roman Empire. But like its predecessor, it will drag on for who knows how long as a joke before some strong leader withdraws his nation, while holding his nose. Then it will collapse like a house of cards. But many of the true believers will remain.
The one thing that opponents of the Amero cannot tolerate is for everyone to just laugh at their ideas, to point and laugh, and call them stupid. True believers hate having their ideas laughed at above all else. It also helps if you tap your forehead with your finger at the same time.
Its PING time.
I would have labeled you a kook a year ago ... but the climate in the country has shifted and I don't know when that actually happened. Are we all in the slowly boiling pot refusing to believe it's getting hotter?

Interesting how this is coming up from London...despite White House denials before the election. Now that W has his globalist-compliant RAT congress...I wonder if his agents will continue to deny it.
Kooky Corsi and World Nut Daily - Damn if we could ONLY have Joe Farah and Tom Tancredo weigh in on this issue it would be a NAU circle jerk!!!
Woohoo!!!
