With all the money the Goracle will be raking in with his carbon credit scam, the least the bass turd can do is buy everyone in Mexico a package of tortillas.

And if that happens, and Canada's currency is also similar, we can slide into one currency for the three North American nations with ease!

Hey, you don't think such a thing would happen by design, would ya?

What’s the problem? If Canada (Americas hat) and Mexico (Americas anus) switch to the dollar, I’m fine with that. The whole world should use the greenback and get rid of those third world currencies that they’re using now./sarc

No, but I should have checked my self. The incorrect info I was operating of was from a co-worker who lives in Mexico and commutes to San Diego every day. I assumed that he was correct when he told me 1 US dollar was about 1.25 peso. Now I'm a little confused as to why he was so off the mark.
