    Fuck Bush and his low dollar policy!

    By the way just remember that with a low dollar, the US is just putting themselves in a big debt hole because of trade deficit. Good luck with that when new president gets elected.

    I'm from the UK aswell and do 98% of my business in the US so it's affecting me rather hard, but just like anything else in life, you just have to deal with it and take it as it comes.

    I would prefer it to be better dollars to the pound, but then you can't have it always. lol

    Biggest problem here, in Czech Republic. Our economy is growing really fast and in year 2000 was $1 almost 40 CZK, now $1 = 20 CZK and it's lowering every day :( Really bad for me...

    nothing to do , maybe buying Gold or Euro
    it will keep down especially with G W Bush leadership who make it worse with his wars beside American now are consumers more than producers , without mention the Chinese products and Chinese food

    look at Canadian Dollar , in the past USD/CAD = 1.5$
    each 1 USD worth 1.5 CAD
    now 1 USD worth 1.05 CAD
