query on US dollar

[Keaney Michael]

Jim Devine asks:

this discussion is interesting, but it's between two admitted ignorami (Rob 
& myself). Is there anyone on pen-l who knows -- or has some sort of 
journalism-based knowledge -- of why the U.S. has pursued a "high dollar" 
policy?

=====

Make that three ignorami. However, I'm pretty sure Jim O'Connor has written
about this in CNS. I'll see what I can dig out tonight and, assuming no one
beats me to the punchline by tomorrow, report on my findings.

Night all,
