I would point out that tin foil hats are actually made of aluminum. Youtube is fun, but homemade videos aren't always 100% reliable. Are they?

The Europeans cannot get along with each other and they have a couple of thousand years of history to prove it. Heck, within the past 100 years alone they have hosted two Euro-centered World Wars which all but devastated the continent.

Many of us trace our ancestry to Europe so they are family. But just as they are family, we, the American cousins, packed up our sh*t and moved out years ago. Wonder why?

It was nothing short of a miracle that they came up with the Euro in the first place but it is not on all that solid of ground. One of the most powerful economies the United Kingdom doesn’t use the Euro and others have talked about returning to their former currencies. It is an issue of monetary control.

It is highly unlikely that the Europeans would want the US to become a member of club EU and I am sure the Japanese and Chinese would not want any part of such as deal. It is also highly unlikely that the US, which continues at this point to dominate the world of currency (albeit on shaky ground as well), would ever want to give up any control over its own monetary system.

Someone was smoking their sox when they told you that, and it was just after they inhaled.

I would point out that AFP according to wikipedia is the oldest news agency in the world.

Does that really look homemade to you Bilko? I never said you have to believe it and you have to get all smartass. Well guess what I can be a smartass too!

I wonder if any of these world wide economists have any data about how lower total world wide economic output effects total world wide spunk output?? Maybe more total deposits are just made locally?

I guess if we see our fiat currency go the way of the others we will find out what our true value is in the eyes of these little lovely Latinas? My guess is that might not be something we really want to see ...

I hope it doesn't get so bad that we have to use our tubes of KY jelly to lube up the wheels on our wheelbarrels to push our paper around. It might be intesting to see if $250,000 a year becomes the new minimum wage . They might have to invent a new tax plan if this happens??

Obviously you can, and fair enough. There is nothing wrong with the video itself and I should not have referred to it at all. I was reacting to the idea of the so-called 'Amero' and the related conspiracy theories.

Looking at that video, it says nothing about any 'Amero' or world currency. It is talking about coordinating the worldwide currency SYSTEM. There IS a system out there, always has been and always will be. How you get from there to the 'Amero' is where I see the hat being put on.

[quote="Bilko"Rather it was the reference to the alleged conspiracy to create an 'Amero' and all that. Looking at that video, it says nothing about any 'Amero' or world currency. [/quote]

Not to digress too much, there will likely be a North American currency in the future. The major North American countries of America, Canada, and Mexico can't compete with the Euro since it is based on so many countries GDP. If you combine the three North American powers and make it one currency it would eliminate the power that the Euro currently has. This isn't something that is going to happen tomorrow or even within the next five years but it will happen eventually.

I probably won't be around long enough to apologize if I am wrong or gloat if I am right, but I really doubt it. With Canada it makes some sense, but with Mexico? The people who run the USA and those who run Mexico have no intention of sharing any power with each other, and unless the big boys want this to happen, I can't see it happening.

I keep telling you boys it's a dark deep conspiracy by those damned Zoroastrians, but will you listen? NOOO. First they rose up out of the dustbin of history, and seduced and took over the Vatican (I'm referencing one of the comments on that Agence France Presse video here), now they are on a conspiratorial thrust to foist a New World Order on us innocents--where will it all end?
Remember: one man's Mede is another man's Persian.
Other communiques as they occur--if one of those 70000 surviving Zoroastrians doesn't get me first.

My point? A serious discussion on a deadly serious subject has been taken over by wild-eyed conspiracy theorists and other assorted whack jobs. If there is a Grand Conspiracy, it's an unconscious disconnected one perpetrated by the power mad and power hungry--they have always been with us, they just have better tools and a recumbent people to work their "magic" on now. More an oligopoly than a monopoly.

P. S. The Zoroastrians were a spent force 500 years before Christ and the survivors are passive, non-proselytizing and living in India.
Now can we get back to a reasoned discussion backed by ascertainable facts of what's happening now and what the near-term future holds unburdened by hysteria (look up the root of that word)? Thank you.

Check this out now, I didn't make this stuff up maybe you like cnbc better.However this is a lot older then last week.

I was just asking if anyone heard of it. Like this thread says I'm no genius but I don't have my head up my a$$ either.

To me worldwide currency means global currency. You heard world currency and you think worldwide currency is somehow different?

You lost me there I'm going to go get my tinfoil hat.

Surfdog

A worldwide currency is one accepted everywhere but not mandatory--the British pound in the 19th century and the US dollar now are 2 such; a global currency would be the only currency in use. A subtle but real difference.

I won't agree or disagree but I sure wouldn't bet on that. Only time will tell.

There are definately those who run the show who would like to have a global currency, world army, heavily surveiled populaton with corporate interests above human interests. It is much closer to happening than you think. But there is resistence and I hope there continues to be. Remember Seattle in 1999. That is a preview of much bigger things to come.

I don't want to beat this into the ground, but I heard nothing about creating ONE worldwide currency, just a call for more cooperation/coordination. As far as the 2nd video goes, the man being interviewed obviously believes there is a big movement afoot somewhere and his proof is that there are websites out there that talk about it. There are websites out there that talk about a lot of things. If you want to believe in the Amero, you are not alone. I did not mean to imply that you, surfdog, are crazy or ignorant. I do think that the 'Amero' idea is not to be taken seriously, that it is primarily a lot of fear mongering from those who don't like Mexicans, such as Lou Dobbs. Getting on CNN doesn't prove anything to me. They run Glen Beck and Nancy Grace, among other BS. If it happens, I will apologize most humbly to Lou, if he will accept my call.

IF this American Union ever does happen, however, you can bet it will be because American corporations want cheap Mexican labor and nothing else. Except the food, perhaps. I'd write more, but I think I want to go get some Taco Bell. Hasta Luego

Bilko, the US Treasury has admitted that the Amero has been minted. It exists in the physical form. Like it or not. It was minted in the Denver mint last year. The Amero isn't a fantasy. It exists in the physical form in reality. This is PER the US Treasury and not Surfdog, Dapanz or Haywood.

Now, I have also heard that we sent 800 billion to China using the Amero and not the dollar. However, I did not get that info from a rock solid source. Just a source I follow on the net. Credibility seems solid but I reserve the right to withhold judgment.

As for a one world currency, well, that would be the world bankers dream. I, personally believe, that is the ultimate goal. It seems crystal clear to me but who am I?
