(write to your Congressman and ask him to support the bill!)

It's about time that they crack down on this. China's currency issues aren't just bad for us, they're bad for everyone.

They are holding billions of our treasuries, and buying more all the time. Have you heard of the expression "over a barrel"?

How bout doing something radical?
Go back to the gold standard and give our currency intrinsic value...making it it's HOLD purchasing power regardless of what the idiots in Washington (or any other country) do.

Based on what I read, I think China is about to un-peg Yuan to Dollar. They will probably peg it against a mixture of currencies.
The thing that concerns me is if they un-peg it too much and stop buying our foreign debt, the consequent inflation will be quite bad for us.
