    Considering the job they are doing, lets try counterfeit Confederate money.

    The Canadian dollar has been pretty strong for quite some time now (even with the slight dip this week), use that… :D

    our MPs might want to keep them all for themselves. btw, why is it that every time i plan to visit the US, the C$ takes a “slight dip” just before my planned departure date?

    @dkram: Agreed, I’ve been saying for years that the dollar is worth a politician’s promise.

    You know things are bad when nations start switching to the Linden, the Second Life virtual world’s currency.

    (Man, fiat money doesn’t get more fiat than that.)

    Um, actually, it’s ALL Monopoly money, and its only value is the confidence we have that the Guvmint will hold together long enough to pay off.

    It’s the same thing that allows for ‘con men’; we believe.

    In the sixties, an Econ 101 course I took mentioned that 2/3 of the ‘money’ in the world was bits on tape. Anybody know what the ratio is now? Probably 10% or so?
