Yup, I agree, but for one thing -- as messed up as the Euro and pound might seem, they probably come closer to a market determination of the relative market value of the dollar. Asian currencies are not allowed to appreciate against the dollar. If they did, we would see the dollar in a whole new light -- a basement light. You can only run a near trillion dollar current account deficit so long before the crack in the ground opens up and swallows the whole house of cards.

2007 might well be the year when the market moves into the post-dollar era. In a post dollar era we accept our new status as a source of cheap labor and assets. Perhaps we can do cut and sew for the French. Fleeing the dollar is just common sense at this point.
