Refuses to exchange dollars in Amsterdam
The danish newspaper Poltiken reports that small currency exchange offices in Amsterdam in the Netherlands now refuse to change american dollars (USD).
American tourists in Amsterdam report that “A dollar is worth nothing over here” (Mary Keller, american tourist to Reuters).  ”It’s hard to find a place to exchange. We have to go downtown, to the central station or post office.”
The dollar is falling so rapidly, and futher drops in the exchange rate is expected. Small exchange operations therefore do not want to lose money on changing greenbacks. The dollar hovered near record lows on Monday, with one euro worth around $1.58 versus $1.47 a month ago.
This is part of the problem currently facing Americans. For the moment, the crisis in America creates problems even for Americans abroad.
The price of Bush is becoming steeper every day now.
The odd piece of information, strange facts, comments on news, ranting and rambling. Kicks and licks. Fun, irony and sarcasm, often, though, with some serious intention.
I live and have lived in Europe and the US. I like both.
I’m nekkid, so no need to undress me. Don't bite me. I much prefer stroking.
