So tonight I was reading over some financial sites, and of course being a U.S. citizen it just makes you shake your head when you realize what has, and is happening to the U.S. dollar.

I know many people hate getting into politics, so I'll hold off on any rants. But in all seriousness I am wondering if I should start doing more business in Euro's or GBP's?
