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

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.

Who came up with "Amero" for the hypothetical North American currency?
Would simply calling it the Dollar work better on many levels?

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.

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.

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

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!

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.
