Six months to a year ago I probably wouldn't have been as interested in this subject as I am today. The present economic upheaval we as a country and even as a planet has given me cause to at least consider this given that this was being predicted as long ago as 18 months.
A friend of mine here on MyLot sent me this information with blessings on starting a discussion so here goes:
In the following video you will hear from a man named Hal Turner. He and his following are convinced that America is in secret negotiations to replace the U.S. dollar with a currency called the "Amero" and this will be necessitated by the total collapse of the U.S. dollar. The agreement now being negotiated will also in essence make Canada, America and Mexico one soveriegn country replacing all of their currency with the "Amero". Mr. Turner even goes as far as to say he has come into posession of one of these "Ameros" and shows it in this video.
I will tell you that in my investigation of this I have found this idea refuted on several sites but most of the rebuffings were over a year ago when America still believed her economy was sound. I present this for discussion, not as fact, because that can only be proven as this plays out. If it turns out to be real, given the present economic circumstances, I don't know if there is anything that can be done to stop or prevent it. I will predict this, however; if it is real, America will find herself in the middle of her second civil war!
Here is the video:

A lot of conclusions could be drawn about the current state of the economy, for that matter it is possible to prove anything with enough diligence. I once had a physics professor demonstrate this by proving that three holed lined paper. The argument was very compelling, but it was simply taking a lot of random facts and forcing them to fit the conclusion.

Myrrdin,
Thanks for the comment.
You may very well be correct in your statement of hoax but I also can't ignore something that falls in line with what we are going through with our economy today.

Conspiricy theory. I've been hearing about the new world order for about 30 years now. It is suposed to be some long range plot to bring the world under one rulership of the elite, coupled with the elimination of up to 80% of the worlds population.I've been hearing about this nau for about 10 years and the 9/11 truth movement almost since the very day it happened. I am a curious creature by nature, so, I look in to things, look alot. These theories are all based on a looses collection of unrelated facts and news events, rumors, misinterpretations, mis-reports and speculation. The only one that has any real validity is the NAU and it is no where near what people made it out to be. That being said, what IS real is a deal with northcom to use U.S. and Canadian troops on each other's soil for humanitarian aid and possible civil disturbance duty.. THIS alone was enough to outrage me and should every one in the U.S. and Canada. It is an obcene viloation of our constitution, I don't know what Canada's laws are on this or what guarantees you guys have but you too should fight this directive.

I'm already fighting the northcom agreament and the other little issue of the first deployment of u.s. troops on u.s. soil, I'm oding it at the state level, hounding state reps both in email and in person, I cornered one in Shaw's supermarket parking lot the other day. I'm trying to get a state law on the books that forbids either u.s. or foriegn troops operating with in new hampshire state borders. 2 other reps live with in 5 blocks of me, and one about 15 miles. These guys are going to be seeing and hearing a lot of me in the near future.

Xfahctor,
Thanks for the comment.
This would have been my reaction also as early as a couple months back but now, with what I see happening like teh agreement for Canadian troops being used on American soil and now the very real economic crisis I just have to say it enjoys a little higher level of credence than it did a few months back. It calls to mind an old saying I have heard over the years and it goes like this; How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time!

This same thing happened in Germany in 1929 or thereabouts. I saw an article last week about it, but can't find the link right now.
I have known of the Amero for quite some time, and how it ties in with the NAU.
Yes, there are a LOT of deniers, but they will soon learn differently of their error.
As someone who is on SSA disability and also due to start my retirement pension oin a few years, I find this extremely disturbing.
Another thing that people seem to not realize is that last year we entered into an agreement with Canada where they would send troops in to help in case of natural disasters if they were needed. That would also be mighty handy in putting down any civil unrest, just in case our troops would be squeamish about firing on American citizens.
We are being set up for a fall, and it looks to be happening soon.
I only hope I am wrong... but I don't think so.

I do know that the agreement was made... the rest remains to be seen.

Direct viloation of posse comitatus. fight it at the state level if the federal government refuses to recognize this. As for any foriegn military performing civil disturbance policing....I will look at them as any other foriegn invader and act under my second amendment right to rise in an armed malitia.

This is not so absurd and it isn't the first time I've heard it. There is an online movie called Zietgeist that talks about this. It is about two hours long. If you get a chance watch it. Let me forewarn you the beginning of it may upset your religious sensability. But you have to get past that part to get to the information regarding the economy. I first watched this movie in 2007.

Cbreeze,
Thanks for the comment.
I've never watched Zietgeist for the very reasons you stated in you comment. I may have to go back and try to get past the sacrelige and watch the whole thing.

I do understand. But after they get past there attempt to debunk religion, it gets really interesting. I slept through most of the religious stuff. When they started to explain the financial institution and the corruption, etc. I perked up and listened because it was very credible to me.

The idea of the Amero was born of NAFTA but it will not go anywhere. That's why you can't find anything recent on the subject. Canada has as much interest in it as the United States does, which is none. I do agree with you though, if there was a resurgance of the idea and it was being pushed by either government, there would be an uprising in Canada and the U.S. I'm not sure of Mexico's position so I can't speak for them...but personally, what they think doesn't carry much weight anyway.

Spalladino,
Thanks for the comment.
If this proves to be true, I fear a much worse scenario than ever has been portrayed in Iraq. America will be the country plunged into a devastating civil war!

I don't think I agree with the civil war theory. If this idea were to be run by the people of this country the response would be so strong it would shake every elected official down to his socks. No one who had any intention of remaining in government would vote for it. I would imagine that Canadians would be equally opposed to the idea and their elected officials equally scared to stand up to voters. So, who would participate in a civil war? When the Euro went into circulation, other forms of money became worthless after a period of time so, technically, this country's government could print Mickey Mouse money and make us use it by having banks refuse to accept greenbacks.

This story has been around for a while. If you want to know more about it do a search engine on the "North American Union". Also ex-president Fox of mexico did an interview last year basically spilling the beans on the whole plan of joining Mexico, America and Canada. It orginally was suppost to include parts of south america too but when Hugo Chavez came into power he pretty well nixed that part of the deal. I am sure you could find the interview online or on youtube if you looked.
A lot of us have been screaming about this for a long long time. But most people either do not believe us or do not care. Lou Dobbs has even done stories on it. People can find out the truth, they just have to bother to look for it. The big question is what are they going to do about it when they do bother to find out the truth. Personally I will not stand for it, but it is going to take a lot of people not willing to stand for it to stop it. A lot of people feel heck Europe did it with the Euro so why not us too.
Wonder why nothing is being done about the illegal immigration problem? Because if this goes through they will not be illegal anymore. People will be able to move freely between all three countries. Which will cause a huge mass of people leaving mexico and coming here and to canada and nothing we can do about it. We will be supporting them. They will be allowed to get all of our and Canada's social programs. Just gives you warm fuzzzy feeling inside huh? And that is just one of the many problems this North American union will cause.

Oh I have heard that term and I completely and utterly believe it to be 100% true. It's our take on the Euro and is to conincide with the formation fo the American Union. I think it's a load of crap and I will fight it tooth and nail. I don't see how they can do such a thing, considering how maynypeople are against the Eurao They are even trying to foce it on england but everyone I know there hates the idea and hopes it never comes to pass. Unfortunatel, it is the beginning fof he one world government crap too. As I said I will fight it tooth and nail and so will my friends. I don't talk much about it with others though, because you know when it starts becoming common knowledge that people are fighting it, people will start disappearing and it'll have to be a whole underground revolution, just like the underground railraoa during slavery.
