Interest rates in EUR are higher than in USD. That's pretty fundamental. The
EUR will climb to at least the level where one gets the same returns - and
of course the EUR will continue higher as long as Bernanke is spamming the
world with US paper.

It isn't just Bernanke. The government is borrowing money to buy
bombs to drop in Iraq. At the end of the day, the US is left with the
debt and nothing to show for it. It would be a different matter if
the US was buying production equipment, infrastructure or even
education with the money. That would mean that there would be assets
to cover the debt so the paper would have a little more backing.

Eventually even people as stupid and inbred as the Chinese central bankers

I don't see the Chinese central bank as stupid. They have made the
best investments they could given the situation. China is running a
surplus.
