Presidents fall out over money

China's president, Hu Jintao, yesterday rejected a personal appeal from
his American counterpart, George Bush, to revalue his country's currency
and adjust other policies that Washington claims give
Business Week suggests that a revalued currency might be a disaster for
Chinese Banks. The Chinese may be renegages (Mao might have been more
attuned to the course of Chinese communism than we have credited him),
but I don't think that their leaders are stupid or crazy.
