Blue, I think you're hitting pretty close to home and there are a lot of bad signs for the dollar. The possibility of oil being priced via a basket of goods rather than the dollar and the fact that India and other countries are dumping dollars are telling signs. These countries are getting rid of dollars, which is going to cause further deflation...and this could help right our foreign trade deficit by making exports more attractive, but with the gov't spending like never before they will likely have to continue printing money. This will just cause further deflation.. I agree, it's pretty bad.
