The Dollar is Down by the Zuider Zee

Amsterdam may be the most international city in the World. You can buy or sell anything there. Not the US Dollar. Not anymore.

The value of the dollar is plummeting so fast, that shops and stalls that routinely exchange money or accept dollars in payment for goods or services, have ceased to do so. Too often, by the time the proprietors get to the bank, the value of the dollar has decreased so much, that they have lost the profitability of the transaction.

We are well and truly fucked, my friend but you're not going to get fucked in Amsterdam, not paying in US dollars, not anymore!
