Moving this to Off-Topic as it has no direct relation to Second Lifes economy.

DUDE! I have a great solution to the falling $L value! Petition the US government for more wars, more outsourcing, and more financing of the national debt through other countries! If we can get the USD to sink faster than the $L, then $L will start to rise in value! Screw the sinks and the stippends debate. This is great! :p

What do you think these currencies buy? Linden Dollars..
Their variable exchange rates determine how much an Englishman can afford in Linden Dollars since LL only qoutes US$/L$.

A falling dollar isn't necessarily a bad thing. It helps US manufacturers to compete overseas by making American made goods less expensive to buy. There have been times when a “strong dollar” have actually hurt the economy. Speaking in very general terms, given the current state of the economy, a “weak dollar” is actually a good thing. It can help stimulate growth

Oh, and I agree, this is directly related to the SL economy.
