  4. How sad that people really are that uneducated. Let's see if we can get you to follow the dots. A dollar used to be worth more then the euro, it now take $.50 to equal a euro. Oil is priced in dollars, so in order to get the same net worth out of a barrel of oil it now takes 50% more dollars to equal what they would have gotten if the oil was priced in euros! very simple. So yes the president and the congress's policies do have a driect impact on the price of oil. People are realizing the dollar is not worth what it once was due to all the excessive spending coming out of washington! think it's bad now just wait!
    keep drinking the kool_aid, you who voted for him will be the hardest hit! funny how that's gonna work out for ya's!

  6. 11:57.... Absolutely none of your paragraph makes any sense except for the overall main idea. How can you say the dollar is not worth as much as a euro in one sentence, then say you can get 1 euro for 50 cents in the next sentence. It actually takes US $1.50 to get one euro right now. Also, the exchange between dollars and euros has absolutely nothing to do with the rise in cost we are paying for gas right now. By your logic, gas would be much cheaper if we were purchasing it in euros. However, in most European countries, gas costs double or more than in the US (when converted to us$). Yes, the dollar is slowly weakening, but not for any of the "very simple" logic you were getting at.

  7. What's funny is, everyone voted for Obama due to RACE not policies... Besides, every one who runs for the presidency ALWAYS says what YOU WANT TO HEAR to get into office... Even David Lettermen or Howard stern went out into the public and asked everyone why they voted or will vote for Obama, and should Obama keep Sarah Palin as his vice president, all said yes he should, I like her... Funny thing was, it wasn't her who was running as Obama's vice president...

    Also, the president has noting to do with the economy, It has to due with that Privately owned company called the FEDERAL RESERVE... has nothing to do with the president or congress which is why you can't audit them, and they can make money for what ever reason, when ever they want... Which is what's going on NOW... That's a tid-bit for you people who need to learn the Constitution a bit better and understand what control we don't have over our own economy...

  8. Rob S, learn how to read, I clearly understand what he or she wrote and it makes perfect sence... He or she stated if you take 0.50 cents add 50%(percent since u cant see this part)to that and you get a eruo dollor...

  9. Take 50 cents and add 50 percent? That would give you 75 US cents which is still 1/2 of a Euro.

    Another factor to consider is the buying power of a given currency in its relative economy. For instance, in a recent trip to England, I learned that about $160 here would give me about 100 british pounds (clearly the pound is worth more). However, some things that cost about $10 in America cost about 10 pounds in Britain. So you can still get more for your money with the dollar in some scenarios.
