More Nations Want the Euro

The euro is the Miss Congeniality of world currencies right now.

Icelanders are clamoring to adopt it. Danes and Swedes are having second thoughts about snubbing it in the past. The Poles and Hungarians are accelerating plans to make the euro their money.

Even in Britain, which has held to the pound with bulldog-like ferocity, there’s talk of possibly joining the euro.

These countries’ stand-alone currencies have been so buffeted by a global financial meltdown and recession in recent weeks that long-standing opposition to joining with the 15 other European countries that use the euro is dissipating.

People in these countries have less confidence in their currencies than they do in the euro or the dollar now.

What do you think the chances are of the U.S. ever adopting the Euro? Slim to none? Possible? Likely?

We’d like to hear what you think. Use the comment link below to tell us… do you think the Euro stands a chance of ever being the world currency, and will the United States EVER adopt it?
