So what's wrong with the American Union? It says it's gonna be like the EU, so no loss of sovereignty there, just open boarders which practically already exist with the only country whose people would want to migrate - Mexico! (lol)
I think the concern is it's seen as another step in the direction of one world government. I mean the EU keeps trying to bring new laws into place to effect the whole continent. You would assume the same thing happen in north america. The loss of the constitution, bill of rights etc.

And btw Canada already uses a dollar, and I don't think the Mexicans would have any problem switching currency So why not stick with that?
Yes but it is afterall the canadian dollar.
There is a number of things that dictate the value of a currency. Domestic manufacturing, savings, and fiscal responsibility by the government etc.
We outsource manufacturing to Asia. Saving is pretty much discouraged, because the government resorts to inflation to bail out those who borrow too much. Growing debt to keep the economy going, which cant last forever. Huge debts that rely on china supporting us.
Countrys around the world are getting out of dollars, thus it's loosing it's status as world reserve currency. As the value goes down, the sentiment of the people to fix the problem will grow.
You couldnt really fix a car that is totalled in a 100mph crash (or perhaps wouldnt). But you can get the insurance to pay for a new one

It's a dodgey issue, zeitgeist has an almost a religious following, and it's very easy to get swept into the whole NWO, one world government, book of revelations on crack thing.
