I hope your faith in the Greenback is justified, Doug, because my business survives on products paid for in American dollars. It's been getting leaner and leaner as the dollar goes down...from $1.55 Canadian not long ago to today's $1.19 Canadian at the bank.

I'm glad I bought gold awhile back, let me tell you.

What worries me more than that, though, is that major monetary collapses sometimes result in major wars not too far down the road.
