Did you notice that the Euro is replacing the US Dollar as a stable currency in most 3rd world countries?

A few relatives recently went to India, converted their Euros into US Dollars, and needed to convert them back to Euros, because that is what they use there now.

Doesn't surprise me at all, I've heard similar things. Still, most pegged currencies are pegged to the USD. I guess this might change soon though. Either way, I don't understand the currency system well enough yet but I've heard some good free market arguments against pegging.

One recent idea I've heard come out of libertarian circles is having currency tied to commodities like real estate, someone never told them currency was tied to gold just fine for a very long time.

His brother says he is satisfied with his life.

Kintaro:
"Because he wants to be [president]," he said. "I think in life, what you want is what you are supposed to get."

Gas this faggot.

Well, that'd certainly be in keeping with the "Change" motif...  LOL

I want a nuke to blow up my brothers, no I need a nuke to blow up my brothers.

To each according to his need, from each according to his ability.
