I have been wondering if strengthening the dollar might be a way to defuse the price of oil, which is, of course, draining the pockets of consumers.

Rising prices with increasing unemployment and stagnant wages are a portent for disaster. I am a liberal and progressive, but I can't see any good coming of an ever weakening dollar.
