You DO realize that the Yen's going from 240 to 120 meant that the Yen had DOUBLED in value against the Dollar, right?

The Reagan Administration pursued a weaker dollar to try and finesse its way out of a trade imbalance with the Japanese, just as the Bush Administration has pursued a weaker dollar to try and finesse their way out of a trade imbalance with just about everybody.

That's why the dollar is down over 30% since Bush came into office.
