Sure, but it doesn't require a universal government. We already have the World Bank and other NGOs set up. All they would have to do is print money to replace current currencies. Voila! Done. No more currency wars, no more devaluations, no more currency pegging, no more currency trading. Simple. Straightforward. Effective.
It's the only way free trade will really work.

Of course its low. Convincing any government to give up part of its power is a pipe dream. The creation of the Euro was really nothing short of a miracle.Turquoise wrote:

Side note, what are the downsides of a single currency?
If the women don't find ya handsome. They should at least find ya handy.
I think a world currency would be a step closer to a world government, so that's part of why I'm against it.
Just because there's a single currency in the world doesn't mean the entire world would be under one government. In a realistic view, all the major countries would have a single currency and there would still be other smaller countries (or even some major ones) would probably resist.Turquoise wrote:

Fair point, but that's a bit different from officially sharing the same currency.burnzz wrote:

It doesn't matter in which currency your economy is failing and your stock markets are crashing.
