"You trade surplus argument is bass ackwards. The balance of trade is heavily in the favour of the Canadian dollar. The dollar's value still slips in spite of the favourable balance of trade. That should tell you something. It tells me that I can still make more money off my capital if I put it in the U.S. than I can in Canada."

We are experiencing a failure to communicate. The above was the exact assertion that I made in order to point out that ordinary economic analysis is not being applied to currency values. The price of gold has been manipulated artificially low, the u.s. agressive hegemony & military attacks & threats, greasepan bailing out LTCM, a ridiculously overvalued SM--are just some of the things that have contributed to an overvalued USD.

If you could understand what a fraud csco is & how the whole u.s. economy is based on fraud & deceit then you may be able to understand why the USD is so ridiculously overvalued. There is good information out there, but I don't have the time to post links.

But there's no point continuing this.
