Sometimes economics works like a domino effect. When one area of the economy goes bad, many others will follow. So many areas of our economy are related, and many are related closely. From the way population effects food supply, to how the price of oil can change almost anything.

On a stand-still basis for foreign exporters, we would have to pay prices that are 20% higher for our imports, just for them to break even when converting dollars back into their native currencies! Hahaha! We pay more for things! Welcome to the hell of a falling currency!
