The money hole

The US government is facing massive amount of debt and there seems to be an uncontrollable political pressure to increase that debt. I think it is time for the United States to finally close the money hole.

It is my (conspiracy nut?) belief that the US government in collusion with the Mexican and Canadian governments are deliberately driving the existing currency into the ground in order to bring in a new currency. I believe that currency will be called the Amero. And I believe that our borders will pretty much disappear. Am I crazy?
Maybe,and time will certainly tell. More than anything I want to be wrong...but I doubt it.
Harper is an economist right? How can he possibly buy into the idea that we can spend our way out of debt? No way...there's just too much BS around this whole thing...

The US financial sector bailout has cost each US citizen $30,000.

The US auto sector bailout of $15 billion is just a down payment on an estimated $68 billion, that's if you pro-rate the $6.8 billion Canadian taxpayers are being asked to give to companies whose cars they won't buy.

So far, in those two sectors, the Canadian taxpayers are on the hook for ... zero.

Let's make sure it stays that way.
