As long as we've vaguely arrived on the topic, I've read some lists of pros and cons for the concept of an Amero to unify our currencies, comparable to the Euro. Comments? Ridicule for the idea?
As a subtopic, anyone else know that pennys now cost more than they're worth? Does anyone actually think that removing pennys from circulation and rounding to nickels will result in a net loss for the public?

Sorry, the site made me think that it didn't go through the first time.

Not "reckless".... just, by and large, not the type of people who think about consequences. This is on a large scale, though... individually, we're just like you. Just with free health care.
 Also, I don't want am Amero... right now, your country isn't EXAAAACTLY being friendly with ours, what with the bombing Canadian troops in Afghanistan, your president calling Canada a breeding ground for terrorism, blaming us when you guys get Mad-Cow-infected cattle, for ruining third-world food supplies with your farmers subsidies and then getting mad at us for our softwood lumber subsidies which are ruining YOUR wood supplies... You know, that sort of thing.

Current events depress me. That's why I don't watch the news or read the front section of the paper.

You're new, MJ, so you didn't know this, but I have a rule about politics at this forum. The rule is "no." (Be glad you missed the period when the rule was "NO!")

Thanks, Zeke, for getting the song "The Word is No" stuck in my head. I'm not sure if that's sarcasm or not.
