LUXEMBOURG (Reuters) - A U.N. panel will next week recommend that the world ditch the dollar as its reserve currency in favor of a shared basket of currencies, a member of the panel said on Wednesday, adding to pressure on the dollar.
Currency specialist Avinash Persaud, a member of the panel of experts, told a Reuters Funds Summit in Luxembourg that the proposal was to create something like the old Ecu, or European currency unit, that was a hard-traded, weighted basket.
Persaud, chairman of consultants Intelligence Capital and a former currency chief at JPMorgan, said the recommendation would be one of a number delivered to the United Nations on March 25 by the U.N. Commission of Experts on International Financial Reform.

Which is much different than a "one-world currency". Texe Marsites ride again!Countries that have a lot of US dollars in their treasury have been taking a beating as the dollar has fallen. It is not surprising that some are seriously thinking that the dollar should be replaced.
The key phrase in the quote below is basket of currencies. A weighted basket would take much of the risk out of reserve currencies. At least that is, I believe, the idea.
Which should make American products cheaper for consumers in other countries to purchase...that is, if we hadn't sent all our manufacturing to China.With all the printing of American currency willy nilly going on the dollar will continue to fall.
The sin was not trading money...it was doing so in the temple.No one remembers whom Jesus ranted the loudest against? maybe the money changers? What did the money changers do for a living? They traded in a basket of currencies. One world currency = end of the money traders. All you reconstructionists and true Bible believers out there, would you be happy if the new currency was named "shekel?" Would that not be "Biblical?"

OK, then what is the "Christian" argument against the rest of the world dumping the dollar as the reserve currency?
I have a better idea. I am openly calling for the creation of a giant penal colony on Tazmania to replace the building that now houses United Nations. The present building in NY could be better used as a giant WalMart."United Nations, are openly calling for the creation of a one-world currency to replace the dollar"
My point is that the dollar should be replaced as the world reserve currency.
