Again, any country that does not have their keyboards able to type ascii is at a sever disadvantage. I can not stress this point enough.

The mere fact that if a countries internet users can not type ascii limits them from any type of coding on the internet since HTML and all other internet programming languages are based upon ascii. As well, that country also limits themselves from accessing most of the web urls which is ascii dominated.

I've given enough information already. If you choose to believe otherwise that is your perogative.



Information? This is more like gabage.

The biggest domain forum in the world is a chinese domain forum - domain.cn, and they don't write ascii there.

For goodness sake, please go and do a bit of traveling and research before you guys start talking about stuff you don't even have a clue.

This is getting embarrasing. :)

The principles behind IDN are fundamental to all domains including English dot Coms. Nobody is suggesting that anyone has to venture beyond their own native market, if they are prepared to overlook the exceptional opportunities that are still on offer in the non-English domain markets. However, if you cannot understand the basic rational behind IDN, then you are no kind of domainer of any sort in my book! The fundamentals of communication are the same be it in English or Chinese. Your contribution here might as well be in Clingon for all the sense it makes!

These guys don't know anything. Barracading oneself into the ASCII castle is like Kodak trying to defend and hang onto its camera film business. Rather than holding onto the sinking ship, one should tap onto new opportunities to spread the risk.

Asia is booming while America is sinking. Ever so evident the past 6 mths. Read the news dudes!!

Don't u know your Feds is trying to make the dollar worthless so they don't have to pay the debts?

Sorry, that doesn't make any sense. Devaluing the dollar will make foreign debts more expensive. It will however make US exports more affordable, and imports more expensive which is a good thing for the US balance of trade figures.

I'm not American, BTW - just pointing out that your economics is flawed.

Debts
-> US Dollar Bonds purchased by Chinese, Japanese, Australians, Russians - trillions i think?
-> US Dollar Mortgages made by Americans -> how many trillions?

Easiest way to solve the debt problem -> print so much money the debt becomes worthless.

Can anyone tell me, how many Yen an English pound can buy in the 1960s?

By clarifying that they're printing more money your point now makes sense.

Yes, they are trying to pull off away with something. I think they can't admit they want to devalue the dollar by printing more money, because a sudden dump of the dollar will cause a stampede that will crash the US financial institutions that borrowed excessive amount of yen. The chinese and japanese also won't rock the boat since they hold onto massive amount of dollars.

But if you look at the pattern over the past 2 years, and listen to what the gurus are saying, you know this is what they are up to.

So, the situation is like boiling a live fish in the water slowly - raising the temperature 1 degree every 10 minutes - the fish doesn't know and doesn't jump out. By the time it knows a few hours later, it's cooked - referring to people still holding onto US assets.

Since the turn of the 20th century, empires rise and fall because of their financial clout, and not because they got the biggest army in the world. The British once had the mightiest navy, didn't they?

It's worse than that actually. A substantial percentage of US foreign debt is held by China. The nation has been sold to more or less hostile foreign interests in some way.

This is only 5% of the problem. The US has created itself a ponzi. To ensure the ponzi won't explode, it keeps pumping in money. As in all ponzis, the rich people controlling the ponzi makes the money from the poorer masses -> subprime.

Now this ponzi threatens to explode, so more money is fed in, until a time upon which all credibility is lost, and the money and assets become useless.

On the foreign relations, the US has lost control of the Middle East - and probably lost control of Europe to Russia now - Russian assassins now travel freely in Europe.

Even the 51st state declared independence recently, converting from 51st state to "best ally".

Now Iran is asking for Yen from Japan for its oil, knowing very well that Americans borrowed yen to their necks. During the time of Saddam Hussein, this will mean immediate invasion.

In the past, empires take 100 years to fall. But all this happened in just a decade. We're now living in Internet time, 10 years from now, what will happen? I think no one really knows.

No because most of the debt is denominated in dollars, but it will make borrowing more in the future not only more expensive but very tricky. US credit rating is about to go down the tubes! There will be very high interest rates and deep economic depression.

It's a catch-22 situation for the US

That is because the time to address the problem was earlier! The problem is that they are now approaching an election, so they will continue cooking the books for another 18 months!

18 months? It would be hard to imagine if the dollar can avoid a depreciation until 18 months later. If the dollar depreciates, no amount of cooking can bluff the American public.

The writing is already on the WALL!

The past 6 months, the gradually falling dollar, the increased weakness in real estate, and the crazily strong demand in expensive central london properties shows that smart money (wealthy people money) is already starting to exit the US for safer and more stable assets.

actually real estate prices are at an all time high in manhattan.... just look at buildings for sale.. in the past 3 years some buildings have doubled from 2 million to 4 million. I would know as I am an analyst there and I am in the business.

Having red the posts on this page it would seem that people ignor the fact that the last thing China would want would be a sudden massive collapse of the dollar. Not only would the debts they hold suddenly become worthless but also the largest market for their manufactured goods would disappear!

Just my 2 cents.

No one except the mullahs in Iran will wish for the collapse of the dollar, this is the reason why the dollar is still holding up - the result of an agreement between central banks worldwide not to dump the dollar, but there are signs that this agreement is starting to weaken. Everyone is quietly selling the dollar and putting their money into commodities. The chinese are doing that, i'm sure the Japanese have started to do the same - even Iran is asking Yen for oil.

Americans should not think that China will eternally depend on America for consumption of its manufactured goods - this is not true.

What really happened was that American consumers helped China industralize and convert its economy from communist to capitalist.

A thousand years ago, there wasn't America, and the chinese economy was doing well trading with Japan, Korea, India and the Middle East. Europe then was still in the dark ages.

This is understandable.

Just look at the amount of money investors in subprime lost to the wall street bankers.

:D :D
