I expect they're all pulling out of the market at the moment, with the dollar reaching the end of its life cycle. Watch the Amero - and laugh at American politicians denying the existence of the North American Union ;) However, on the level at which international politics is manipulated, you should look to the money masters. You need to know how fiat currency works, how governments borrow money at interest from banking institutions in private hands. This is how it's worked in England since 1496. American independence was won largely to free them from this usury, and it was clearly mandated in the Constitution that money should be controlled by the government. This went down the pan in 1913, when the Federal Reserve Act was put through Congress in the Christmas hols, following financial panics orchestrated by the same trusts that would directly benefit from the act. Anyone notice how Iraq got its new world bank after being "liberated"?
