I need more proof before I declare that shenanigans are afoot. That's too heavy an accusation for such little evidence.


Millard - 2008-10-10

Whatever dude, he said his proof was irrefutable. That's good enough for me.

Hal Turner shut down his show because he lost a flame war with 4chan. The dude got annihilated. http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/Hal_turner for more info than you ever need.

I have an old "magic shrinking Nixon penny" that is 1/4 the size of a regular penny.. I wonder what a crazy fat nazi would rant about THAT.


Caminante Nocturno - 2008-10-10

He would take one look at your penny and declare that tomfoolery is about.

french franks, huh? yeah, i'll trust money advice from this guy...


HURF BLURF DUH - 2008-10-10

Meanwhile, the worldwide economic crash has actually resulted in the dollar gaining against other currencies. Also, how would "0 million Ameros" pay China off for anything before it actually becomes a currency?

I'm giving this nonsense too much time by even making these arguments, never mind.


heyitslozeau - 2008-10-10

dude, when your economy is failing you just design new currency, thats how economics works.


Dr. Lobotomy - 2008-10-10

Who came up with "Amero" for the hypothetical North American currency?

Would simply calling it the Dollar work better on many levels?

Herbert Grubel, a Canadian conservative economist.

Mmmm...chocolate coins.


baleen - 2008-10-10


Wow, dollars are worthless? Is that why over 2/3 of all governments continue to buy dollars to prop up their own currency? Why would China need coins? COINS. As in something you can get minted for .95 at a vanity mint.

http://www.amerocurrency.com/buyameros.html

The fucking thing even looks like a customized coin from Franklin Mint or something. These are not real. This is a way for assholes to make money off of extremely stupid people like Hal Turner, who is probably also making a good deal of money off of it.


baleen - 2008-10-10


Notice how every "amero" these websites are selling looks completely different.


Rudy - 2008-10-10

Yeah, but were they minted in DENVER?

D IS FOR DENVER OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE

AMERICA: Hey, our currency is worthless and we're completely in debt. Hey Mexico and Canada, wanna merge and share this colossal debt?

MEXICO and CANADA: SURE! Sounds good to us!


mouser - 2008-10-10

He actually has a point about the imminent collapse if the interests outweigh actual assets.


baleen - 2008-10-10


Not really.

It's a hoax since billions of people can tell one thing right off the bat from what he said - he did fuck up at least once; French Francs haven't been a currency for years now.

Buying into Pound Sterling would be folly as well seeing as there's a nice big black hole in the UK's tax funds which spirits away to who-knows-where.

Still an interesting argument sans Amero, though.

pwned


baleen - 2008-10-10


You aren't THE sociopath... no... couldn't be...


Genesis - 2008-10-10

Hmm, He must've frozen that chocolate coin pretty good. Aaaaaand even if we're poor in america let's be honest, we're still rich in Mexico.


DMKA - 2008-10-10
