Yeah, no surprise there. The Chinese have been trying to devalue our currency for years, why would N. Korea be any different. Bottom line is we need to throw a few US Drone Missles in both directions and see what happens. It would not hurt the US one bit to come off as a big bully once in awhile. I'm just sayin'
Are we STILL obsessing over the "superdollar"? That story has been cropping up since the early 80's. Several design changes and one paper change ago. And as to where the press came from, I hadn't heard the story about it coming from East Germany. my understanding was that it was the state of the art press (same one we use) that we gave to Iran shortly before the fall of the Shah. (Originally the superdollars were coming from Iran. Why they would give up a good thing and send the press to North Korea I don't know unless they found something in the Koran that forbid them to do the counterfeiting. Or maybe they get a commission.)
