  •  This means interest rates will go up again. (2+ / 0-)

    Euro is thrashing the dollar again right now.  An oil bourse in Euro would make it less necessary for oil buyers to have USD reserves.  And the deficit is not going to go down with continued overseas adventures. So to sell more bonds the Fed will have to raise rates again.

    And like I said before, increased interest rates are like another form of taxes, the difference is that the payments go to hostile foreign governments and banks, and not to building American infrastructure.
