The US dollar has lost about 50% of it’s value since Bush took office. Mostly during the last 3 years. Double digit inflation is coming to the US for the first time since that brain dead moron Carter was president.
That's its foreign exchange value which is very different from its purchasing power in the U.S. which has fallen about 19% in 8 years.
It’s down about 25% from 2000. It’s down about 50% from the Euro but not against the basket. It went up like 20% from 2000 to 2001 so it’s drop from when Bush took office is a big exaggerated. I should note the dollar is also only down about 25% from 10 years ago. The $ was basically overpriced in 2001 & 2002 as the Euro was at it’s weakest and 9-11 sent flight to safety.
