Do you think we are headed to a one world currency? If you think we are, why? What is happening to make you think we are headed in this direction.
I personally believe we are headed that way fast. Why because America is broke and will no longer be the power house it once was. To solve all the financial crisses the big idea will be one world currency.

it will never happen,
one currency wont solve any crisis, here in uk we have the euro its not accepted in any shops I go into infact they look at you as if your spending fake money lol.
Also what currency is the world going to move too ??? now that would be an amazing arguement around the world leaders.
Also when currencies merge there are winners and loosers if we moved to one currency then some countries value of money will increase making them richer and one countries will drop making the normal people poorer.
Look at when the UK moved fro shillings etc etc the value of money dropped.
If all the currencies were 1 : 1 in value then fair enough but each countries money is totally different in value.
Also on a seperate issue we need to keep our national identity.
Just my 2 pence worth or euro worth (yuk at the euro lol),

if it was the same value then some countries residents would be poorer as their value of money would drop and some would be winnings and become richer.
Also the us hasnt been the financial super power nor has uk for a year or more. I personally think the most powerful man and country is now russia.
But lets all hope that we can ride the storm and get back to a working financial system.

I believe that we are for the reasons that you said. One of my sister's co-workers predicted many years ago that not only would we have a one world currency, but that American money would have color. I could not see that happening when my sister first told me about it, but our money does indeed have color now.
