The Old European nations are mired in double-digit unemployment, Zero economic growth (of course that is their target:), a lack of consumer class (due to high Value Added Taxes), and a ruling burearcy being imposed from the French elite system with no accountability the very people it purports to represent. Only the politicians, bankers, and a few business owners will benefit from a high euro and the people will continue to support their nations, the EU and anything unAmerican due to the European MSM.
If the value of the dollar was really based on anything other than proping up Europe's Euro currency it would be the dollar valued at 135 to the Euro. Europe is economically dead due to socialism and government directed economies.
