Does anybody know what this one trillion dollar bailout of Wall Street will do to the value of the dollar? I don't know -- but I assume it will make the dollar worth a lot less. I mean - our government does not HAVE one trillion dollars lying around. So - aren't they just going to have to "print up" that money - and have future taxpayers pay it back? I don't know. But I sure love the Dollar Stores and I hope they - and Target - find a way to keep things at $1.
