Something doesn't add up here. Ecuador's currency, the sucre, was so worthless that the government converted to the U.S. dollar several years ago.
Supposedly, U.S. companies have been excitedly moving into Ecuador. A new U.S. military base is being located on the Pacific Coast of Ecuador.
I think the new government of Ecuador is on a collision course with self-imposed extinction.
I'm tempted to blame Chavez-style bluster for this one but I really don't know the particulars. Anyone want to give us some background?
