A weak dollar helps the fed, and hurts all of us who use it to buy things we use to live. A weak dollar directly precedes inflation, it takes more to buy the same things, but cheaper short term to pay debt based on number of dollars.

I am very concerned that our basic economy is broken. As in can't be fixed, needs an overhaul and parts replaced. Hope I am wrong; I have 2 kids still in school and am at least 5 years from "retirement."

As an American, I will keep plugging along and do m best to be a citizen who makes something or does something of real value.
