Dion J asked: ..and if so, how is that going to happen. It seems that something like that would take more than a few days for us to switch our currency. How would we get the new money and what would we do with the money we already have. An example would be like someone with $ 600 cash finding out that the dollar is dead and we are switching to the AMero.

We are *NOT* switching our currency. It’s strictly hypothetical. Nobody really believes it will actually happen.
More info:
We’ll start using the Amero at about the same time as we all start speaking Esperanto.

Uh, no

uhhh probably. Same thing happened in Europe, who would have tought that the proud Europe would do something like that. Here is an interesting theory:

It will never happen, and no US politician is stupid enough to seriously propose it. The conspiracy theorists say it is all being done in secret, which is, of course, ridiculous. Check Snopes.com for more on this:
I might also point out that it took ten years from the signing of the Maastricht Treaty to the day that the Euro actually began circulating (This included every member country putting it to a vote. England, Denmark and Sweden rejected the Euro and do not use the Euro), and several countries that want to join the Euro community can’t because the economies of those countries don’t meet the membership criteria (inflation rate, amount of debt, stability of currency exchange rate). Mexico will never meet those criteria because inflation is too high, debt is too high, and the peso has dropped 20% with respect to the dollar in the last two weeks alone.
Any treaty has to be approved by Congress to have legal standing. The conspiracy theorists seem to think that this can all happen in secret, and they can’t let go of the idea, no matter how crazy or unworkable it is. It’s a bit like telling the Pope that God doesn’t exist.
By the way, most pre-Euro banknotes are still redeemable, even now. French Francs and Italian Lira are redeemable until 2012, and German Deutsche Marks are redeemable without time limit.
