[Idyllchat] affording Italy

[Russ Crum]

According to a couple of predictions I have seen, you may wait a LONG  
time for the dollar to return to former values. One article I read a  
month or so ago said some economists believe we could see a USD:Euro  
ratio of 2:1 before things turn around!!

I think the bottom line is that our political gurus in Washington  
just cannot continue to spend the way they are and pretend that all  
is well without costing us anything.
