Sorry John
You assume that Americans will sit and watch the
Euro overtaking US $.
No - for the following reasons
1. Already the Federal Reserve is considering
introducing color bills both to avoid counterfeiting
and making it easy to distinguish. So it will be
called 'greenback' no more.
2. At later stage they may change the size of the
bills to make it even more easier to distinguish.
3. If needed they may even replace the faces of
political leaders (like Washington, Lincoln, etc)
with tourist attractions like
Capitol Hill, Statue of Liberty, Niagara, etc.
Can the Europeans match.
If the Euro's strength really hurts US economy, then
they will go for the final act
'Replace FFU with SI' - hope you like this.

No. 3: Not if Bob Barr, radical right congressman from Georgia, has his way. He wants Reagan on the $10 bill as part of his rename-everything campaign.
