>>" Your dollar's buying power (2005) is now worth less than 2 cents in 1900 dollars. It's LOST 98% thanks to 105 years of mismanagement by Democrats and Republicans, but mostly Democrats since they have held the reigns of legislative power for the lions share of that 105 years. Pull out you dollar and weep... then blame your government. It is the only institution that can cause such devaluation of the nation's currency. "<< Oh yeah, took a lot of plane rides to Europe with those 1900 dollars, bought a lot of wireless PCs, DVD players, digital TVs, SL 500s, vacation homes with running water, A/C, microwaves, dishwashers, flush toilets etc., with those 1900 dollars. Figures you would post such dumb stuff. Go have a "conversation??" with Watson. He is more your speed.

Bush's dollar is down around 45% since 2000 against the Euro. So consider yourself 45% poorer in global terms. This is what George Soros and many others warned us about, the fact that Bush meant to borrow and spend us into the poorhouse, meaning the Bushies are looting the treasury and transfering the wealth from the public to the private fat cat corporate pockets. Under Bush-Delay-Frist, if you're in the top 2% you do great. Everyone else can kiss their butts because they're going to get the tab. This has also been pointed out in the book on Bush's tax code called "Perfectly Legal". Along with the enormous energy and health care gouging, the attack our out treasury and Social Security represents the biggest ripoff in the history of the planet. But in the meantime, Bushies say "trilion dollar deficits? What me worry?"
