As the value of the U.S. dollar continues to plummet, loosing 50% of its value against the Euro since George W. Bush took office in 2001, American businesses are now actively courting European shoppers. Places that once accepted dollars now refuse them. Meanwhile, the U.S. real estate market is booming as Europeans buy up American property at bargain prices.

Good news though, the value of the dollar is expected to climb again as soon as George Bush is out of office.

Bonus "Family Guy" scene thrown in for fun.

1. Restore our economy now

There is no easy way to get our way out of this fix. Restore the 32% top end tax rate. Increase taxes on Dividends, and restore the Inheritance Tax. Force a balanced budget. Prosecute our war criminals. Apologize to the world for 8 Years of Reptilian Stupidity. Decrease the Pentagon budget. Tax Breaks for companies that keep jobs here. End Nafta. End China in the WTO, unless their currency is going to not be artificially kept low. Some ideas...
