Europeans love coming to the US for Christmas shopping
Just saw a report on NBC news this evening. The savings are huge
compared to what they would pay in Europe for things like I-Pods, jeans, jewelry etc. Some people from Ireland said they plan on coming every year at this time as long as the prices are this good. |

That is their aim of devaluing our dollar. The consequences to us higher prices, for everything. The dollar will not be the international currency of exchange, according to some economists for long. This is the desire of the Globalist. Follow the oil producers. Wait for the consequences if/when China starts accepting only Euros for exchange. Remember that Free Trade is not fare trade for Americans. MHO |

Not only the prices but the $ rate vs euro !!
Of course once they learned how to deal with the welcoming TSA people.... Once they learned that tax is never included in prices... Once they learned that tipping is at least 15%.... Once they've dealt with hotel prices in Manhattan....then some change their mind. "stonej" a écrit dans le message de news: ... Just saw a report on NBC news this evening.

With all due respect, your dollar has devalued since your president took balanced budgets left to him and then pushed deficit budget after deficit budget that ran up your national debt to Nine Trillion Dollars! Cutting taxes for the rich, running a stupid war against the wrong country, and mortgaging your children's lives to do it were stupid and unnecessary. Don't blame any external "THEM". BTW, don't get me wrong, I like the 'states but am saddened by what this administration has done to your country. |

Even with those factors it seems they are still getting a good deal if the price savings they showed on TV for various items is any indication. |

"Them" has to be viewed as external to the Republic since most of "them" are muti national and foreign owned and all are Globlaists. Everything is nutty in DC. I wonder where their Economists got their degrees unless it is their plan to destroy America. I am alarmed that no one seems to recognize what is happening before their eyes. They accept Globalist Murdock's analysis and reporting in deference to their own common sense. |

That's part of why the Republicans did so poorly in last month's mid-term elections. |

Perhaps sometime soon the Chinese will make their goods available directly in Ireland. Walmart is coming. |
